J pod and L pod West side foraging

We circumnavigated San Juan Island to meet up with Southern Resident Orcas from J pod and L pod. Foraging and socializing off False Bay. We all headed offshore in small playful groups enjoying the sunshine and calm waters. A summer’s day on the westside of San Juan Island. It doesn’t get any better than this.
