WHALE-WATCHING: Orcas in the area

| Seen at sea | West Seattle news | Whales | Wildlife

Thanks to Kersti Muul for the tip to keep an eye out for orcas today – as of a short time ago, “Orcas are northbound again at entrance to Colvos Passage. Two groups today – one went south and is at Pt. Defiance.” That’s Tacoma, so you might not see them any time soon, but Colvos Passage is along the west shore of Vashon Island, so if those whales continue heading northbound, they will be in view from here. Let us know if you see them!

We just saw a group (or at least one) northwest of Me-Kwa-Mooks Park headed north! Sorry, not able to get any photos. We could see them coming up for air, some fins, and a tail!

Sorry, comment time is over.
