9/25/16 – We had a nice encounter with some members from K pod, the K14’s, K16’s, and K21, who were foraging between Stuart and Battleship Islands. It was great to watch them chasing fish. We left them at Kellett Bluff as they porpoised south down Haro Strait. We ventured back around Spieden to Flattop to see what other wildlife we could find.
