Few Cetacean Sightings include Orca and Humpback Whales
Cetacean Sightings have been few over the past few foggy and rainy days, but Transient Orca, identified as the T02C’s made an appearance and a Humpback Whale, most likely ‘Maude’, was again spotted just below Powell River. No reports on October 31 or the first day of November.

1:20 pm 4 Transient Orca at Hall Point, Nodales Channel easting into Cordero Channel. Looks like the T02C’s doing long dives. The calf is getting bigger. I’ve only got my phone for photos today – it isn’t the greatest.
2:04 pm They just came through the Dent Rapids. Looks like they’re going seal or sea lion hunting.
2:50 pm Lost the Orca by Jimmy Judd Island. The currents started running pretty good.

Humpback continuing its path, spotted 11 a.m. between Donkersley beach and China Bay, mid Malaspina Strait. (just below Albion Point, but above Lang Bay) It seemed to be heading east. At one point it sounded, with flukes up, disappearing for several minutes.
