We were coming up the Burke Channel towards the Nootsum River
when we saw a Humpback come coming up.  The humpback was down
for a long time and we lost it.

This is a nice shot of the small fin that gives them the name Humpback.

The shutter speed was a bit too slow here.  The timing is good though.

The male Dorsel Fins are impressive.� They stand out in a group and when the they get close
they are easy to spot.

I've seen lots of Orca's on -2 Channel, but seeing them live
is something special.

There were about 25 whales traveling together in little groups of about 5 whales.
They would surface about three times and then stay under for about a minute.
