No calls but orcas nearby

There is a large group of transients heading into the Strait after passing Alert Bay a while earlier. The Rs and Ws continued to the west.

Orcas approaching Orcalab.

The large group of transients is near Big bay on the hanson island side. They are still moving toward the eastern end of Hanson Island. No calls. CP is filming but they are still distant.

No calls but orcas nearby

The transients after being quite active off CP and the entrance of Blackney are headed east now. They are split still into two groups. The group which came close to CP has carried on down the Cracroft Island shore while the other group stayed mid strait and is off the Sophia Islands by now.

Orcas near mics.

We've been hearing occasional calls from the transient orcas on the Critical Point hydrophone... sounds like some of them are in Robson Bight, probably heading east.
