Dec. 12
We were standing on the beach at Ft Flagler State Park, facing northwest. An orca pod - we estimate 7-8 whales, one very large male with a skinny pointy back fin. - appeared at the southern end of Whidbey Island. traveling south from Whidbey into the Port Townsend bay,Saturday, Dec. 12 approx 3:00 pm. It appeared they were feeding as they remained stationary for about 20 minutes. There were dozens of birds around the pod - we guessed the birds were scavenging fish from the feeding frenzy in the water. Three photos are attached!

These are the Transient orcas that we believe are the T68s - sb
