Transient orcas, T73A’s, visit Friday Harbor coming in the south entrance past the Ferry Dock and out through the north entrance. They hugged the shoreline past the University Labs continuing north to Spieden Channel. Setting sun spotlit the landscape under a blanket of black clouds. A double rainbow stood out against the dark sky. T73A’s in stealth mode circled Sentinel Island before clearing Spieden at sunset and entering New Channel. Stunning light, stunning photographs – enjoy. Rain or shine, it’s always different, it’s always amazing on the water.
