The T18 subgroup of transient orcas (consisting of two females, T18 and T19 and T19's offspring - T19b, a very husky and interesting looking male, and T19c, a juvenile) have been seen meandering around the San Juan and Gulf Islands for the past few weeks and we've been fortunate to have some fantastic encounters with them. The other day we found them at Henry Island traveling north very slowly for most of the afternoon...UNTIL... The whales reached the west side of Stuart Island and suddenly stopped. There was much erratic surface activity and lots of tail lobbing from all the whales. It was quite clear that had made a kill! Here are some pics from the day's trip":
