No orcas present.

Yesterday we had a treat. The A11s went by headed for Johnstone Strait. They had been calling in Blackfish Sound before they made the move into Blackney Pass. A13 was closest, the rest (including Springer and the new little one with A11) were on the far side. They continued eastward once they were in the Strait. As we were watching them, the I31s were apparently headed off towards Port McNeill after passing Alert Bay around 10am. Thanks to Jared & Robin for this sighting and the earlier heads-up about A11's new calf.

Distant calls audible.

This morning around 9am we heard I31 type calls close to Robson Bight. Possibly, they went off to the east. Just now we are hearing distant As (?A4) in Blackfish Sound...

Multiple pod calls audible.

good morning! Once again we are hearing A5 and I31 type calls in johnstone Strait. They seem to have connected with A4s. All these groups, travelling together, may be heading west for the moment.
