Orcas near mountain point

6/16/2016

A pod of orcas were seen near mountain point.  The pod was first observed as they were leaving the east channel of the Tongass Narrows.  The pod was swimming south toward mountain point.  They were moving very quickly.  We lost sight of them near mountain point.  

This pod has been identified as the T46Bs; a mom and her four offspring.  They are transient (mammal eaters) orcas.  Thanks to Northern Resident Orca Population for identifying these whales for me.  ​
