WEST SEATTLE WHALE-WATCHING: Orcas heading this way

9:31 AM: Thanks to two texters for the heads-up via our hotline (206-293-6302) – orcas are headed this way, southbound. Kersti Muul says they were seen off Golden Gardens (Ballard); an unsigned text says they were seen off West Point on the north side of Elliott Bay. Please let us know if you see them!

10:06 AM: An Orca Network commenter says at least two are headed toward Alki Point, still southbound, as of a few minutes ago.

    lol, I paid $$$ to go see them a few weeks ago on the San Juan Clipper. I am never able to get to the beach to see them for free when they cruise by here!
