OCTPOWRIMO 2026-Number 14-Orcas-1st Slide:

*ASLEEP*

(Left [Aware]:) Waves carry me along at their pace

(Right [Unaware]:) I see nothing but endless space

(Left [Aware]:) Birds float atop my dwelling

(Right [Unaware]:) I hear nothing but bubbles swelling

(Left [Aware]:) 'Cracks' of thunder take apart the sky

(Right [Unaware]:) I feel nothing but a sigh

*SWITCH*

(Right [Aware]:) I see now the waves are growing

(Left [Unaware]:) The darkness here is overflowing

(Right [Aware]:) I hear now the birds are flying

(Left [Unaware]:) The bubbles here are multiplying

(Right [Aware]:) I feel now the thunder's brother

(Left [Unaware]:) The sighs here start to smother

*SWITCH*

(Left [Aware]:) Ship stays spinning under circling birds

(Right [Unaware]:) Should I stay under, ignore your words?

(Left [Aware]:) If you want them to catch you, feed their young

(Right [Unaware]:) The bubbles, frantic, like the sea has sung

(Left [Aware]:) Those 'cracks', those 'krakows', dangle overhead

(Right [Unaware]:) In other words, if I don't, we wind up deadOCTPOWRIMO 2026-Number 14-Orcas-2nd Slide:

*AWAKE*

Right, Left, Left, Right, Right, Left, Sight!
The vast sea has plenty of fishes tonight!
And yet, these sailors chose the predator as prey!
Mercy could be had, if they press their hands and pray!
Who wakes up an Orca in the middle of their sleep?
Don't they know that one half always lurks from the deep?

Black body, white patterns, on its belly and its face
Hailing from the fabled 'Ornicus' to offer up its grace
And as we see it jumping, from the starboard to the bow

A beauty steals the catch, from a crew that sought to wow.

#Orcas never fully fall asleep; instead, they rest one half of their brain at a time while keeping one eye open to breathe and watch for danger.

The tide was low vis was terrible. Only after processing did all the bodies appear. All I ever saw was a flash of black and white or a couple feet of a black snout bobbing at me.

Got to meet the newest member of the T36A1s today! This little one, who has received the designation T36A1B from Bay Cetology, was first documented on September 26th and appears to be a few weeks old.

TGIF! Here's hoping your weekend brings you moments like this one 🤩

This photo was taken last Sunday as T19C Spouter and T65A3 Amir rounded the north end of Henry Island. With some awesome early autumn weather in the forecast, we can't wait to see what this weekend has in store!

#whalesky #orcas

Two bull Bigg's killer whales surface side by side, their breaths backlit against a dark island. The silhouette of a person is also visible on the shoreline behind them.
