We spent some time in our boat and found four humpbacks and many sea lions feeding in Favorite Channel.  I was able to get fluke photos of two of the whales.  

We spent some time on our boat and saw four humpbacks throughout the day.  I was able to get fluke shots of two of the whales.  

We spent some time in our boat and spotted two whales near Favorite Reef, as well as a mom and calf pair in Favorite Channel.    

We spent some time in our boat and had two very brief encounters with one humpback and two orcas.  The orcas were super elusive and difficult to track.  We gave up trying to find them after looking for 20 minutes.  I was only able to get three photos.  I did find out that others had seen a large pod, and they were identified as AG pod.  I believe the two we saw were also from AG pod.  

Long distant shot from shore.  Observed two humpbacks traveling north.  They were not traveling together.  

Although I was never able to confirm it, I believe this is False Butterfly (SEAK-2136).  

The whale activity in Fritz Cove has lessened, but I did spot FalseButterfly in the area along with several sea lions.  It seems as though Flame has left the area.  I wonder if she left for Hawaii or if she is still near Juneau?  

The two whales briefly swam and dove together.  The sea lions were once again feeding along side the whales. 

As I was walking along the road, I found a small fish laying in the street.  It was about the size of my middle finger.  My best guess is that an eagle dropped it as it was flying across the road (I have seen eagles feeding in the same areas as the sea lions and whales).  I cannot help but wonder if this is what the whales and sea lions have been feeding on.  I am not sure, but I believe the little fish is a herring.      

I have been spending a lot of time checking Fritz Cove for our two winter whales.  I expect them to be gone every time I go there, but am always happy to see they are still in the area.  I once again found Flame and False Butterfly feeding, along with many sea lions.  

I did a quick check of Fritz Cove and found two humpbacks in the area.  I was able to get a photo of SEAK-2136, False Butterfly.
