@orcasound.bsky.socialAI detected humpback vocalizations for the first time this fall in Haro Strait last night! Around 2:30 this morning (2:25-2:32), faint “whups”& other non-song vocalizations rang through an otherwise quiet soundscape. Listen to the recording here — live.orcasound.net/bouts/bout_0...

Sunday, Indy (T65A5) was in Carr Inlet then Dalco Passage traveling & eating; Southern Resident orcas were reported in Juan de Fuca Strait off Jourdan River, be sweet if there's enough returning 🐟 to entice them back inland Puget Sound.
