Happy Spring! Spieden Island is looking especially beautiful this year with its annual bloom of pink! Unfortunately, these flowers are an invasive species but I can still appreciate their beauty!
T19B “Galiano”, a Bigg’s Killer Whale because yes, killer whales are dolphins! (But they’re also still whales)

It’s National Dolphin Day so here’s a thread of some of my favorite dolphin shots over the years! Feel free to add your own! It’s the perfect excuse for more dolphin photos!
To start, a pair of common dolphins offshore of San Diego
New Baby! New Baby! New Baby!

Had a really nice encounter with the T46s to break my month-long whale dry spell. Found them booking it at 7knts inner island and they actually passed right by my house through Pole Pass! Grateful for any chance to be on the water with these amazing whales!
He’s such a cool whale and its so rare for him to be on the inside of Vancouver Island! Stoked for you!
You did so well! They turned out great!
Gorgeous Brooke!
Loooooove
So stoked for you!!

He’s such a good whale
Can confirm it is most definitely not AI. I was standing next to Katie when they took this photo and watched it happen with my own eyes.
One of my favorites of yours! Soooo beautiful!
Have SO much fun! Tell the humpbacks hi!!! 🐋
I know! So exciting! Any healthy baby is good but a female is so important for the future of the population
J62 is confirmed female!
If you ever come up this way to the San Juans, give me a shout!
I feel so incredibly lucky that I get to be on the water with these animals for a living! Its the best! Happy to share my experiences with others!
She really is!
She’s the best!
She is the best!
Thank you! She’s the best
