Orcas in Gastineau Channel

11/26/2017

A large pod of orcas were observed in the Gastineau Channel directly across from downtown Juneau.  The pod was spread apart and moving very quickly.  I was quite far from them, therefore, my photos are heavily cropped.  The orcas appear to be part of AG pod of the Alaskan residents.

Orcas in Gastineau Channel

A pod of three orcas were seen in the Gastineau Channel close to Douglas Island directly across from downtown Juneau.  They were moving very slowly.  It appeared as though they were swimming in a circle or at least staying in the same spot.  They eventually began moving south.  It was almost dark, and they were at least a half mile away from me, therefore, the photos are grainy.  The male has been identified as T087.

Orcas near Point Retreat

11/3/2017

We observed a small pod of orcas near Point Retreat.  There were three to five animals in the pod.  They were elusive and difficult to track.  We also observed three humpbacks and a pod of Dall's porpoise (no photos) in the same general area.  

These were transient (mammal eaters) orcas. T065A and T65A2 have been identified.  Many thanks to Northern Resident Orca Population for identifying these whales for me.
