The T18's were seen this am at 10.30. I was on the 9 am Zodiac out of Victoria. Mark Mallerson ID this foursome. Apparently they have been hanging out in this area for four days now. We caught up with these Transients off Moresby and Coal Island, near Swartz Bay. I have included a pic of T 19B (cropped), the male with an unusual, broad based Dorsal Fin. They were busy traveling toward the Gulf Islands when we left them and looking for prey along the shoreline of Moresby.
