ORCAS: Whales in our area

Saturday whale-watching, anyone? Kersti Muul tells us orcas are in the mouth of Elliott Bay, “surface-active, south of West Point.” Up to half a dozen had been busy “on a kill” but now, she says, they’re trending southbound. Murky out there – or at least it is up here – but let us know if you see them!
