My little point and shoot camera really wasn’t up to the task of taking photos on the wonderful whale-watching tour that Terri and I went on this past Wednesday. However, the wonderful guides at Western Prince Whale & Wildlife Tours got some great pictures, and were kind enough to share. So, I get to share with you!
If you happen to be in the area, I can’t recommend these folks more highly. They were professional, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a whole lot of fun.
This is a case where the pictures are almost better than what we saw, since they were taken with a telephoto lens, while our boat had to obey the rules of staying at least 200 yards away from the whales. We did get to see one about 50 feet away but that was because it went towards the boat. We were really lucky to get to see so many Orcas. They were calling this a “superpod” because orcas from three different pods were together. Members of one of the pods were seen for the first time this year.and the guides/naturalists on the boat were overjoyed to see that members of this non-resident pod had returned.
I’m glad you had such an awesome time.
Too cool. Ive only seen humpbacks, never orca.
I’m so glad you both had a good time. My mom and I really enjoyed the crew too. 🙂
