Nice photo of the Orca, but also the Seattle waterfront looks different than a year ago!

The group was the T124s. We were only able to ID who was here because of this photo! T124A2 has a very unique eye patch which made this one fairly easy. Grateful to Eilene for sharing this photo bwith me that day to get an ID They came close to the West Seattle side very briefly… I missed them but saw them from a distance later.Coleman dock project was shut down as they went to the DT side of the bay and made a kill around 3 pm
