Our beloved solo-adventuring orca Indy is still around, currently in the upper Tacoma Narrows heading south. And grays are continuing to feed & hold presence up in the Whidbey Basin. Good luck!

Nielson in Admiralty Inlet today:

14:51 - Hello! Swiftsure has T49C just inside Port Townsend harbor was seemingly playing with a crab pot for a bit. Seas are 4-5 foot and tough spotting conditions. He’s a bit non-directional for the moment.

Rain has returned to our region, hopefully Southern Resident orcas have incoming salmon to follow inland!

Solo orca reported Thursday, maybe Indy?

T065A5 Indy (darling of our ♥️s) mostly travels apart from his family, but meets up w/them & others every so often. Indy was back in South Puget Sound solo on Tuesday, yesterday we went w/out reports - maybe today he'll be seen.

AI 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.
