The 9:00 whale watch on the Bay King III and Friendship V were great. The weather and whales were wonderful. We finally had a day with no fog. The two whale watch boats ventured offshore today and were very successful. We found 3 finback whales and 3 humpback whales. Two of the humpbacks were identified as Sonogram and Canine. These two young whales were circling around taking turns coming up to the surface. We got great looks at these whales. Other wildlife included harbor porpoise (photo below), seals, and many seabirds including northern gannets, shearwaters, and Wilson storm petrels.
