No confirmation on whales sighted between Tuesday and today. The weather picked up today as predicted, with winds and rain persisting between 11am and 3pm. The weather will be better tomorrow, and I'll be leading a group of at least 4 guests at noon from Roche Harbor, San Juan Island.
I'm hoping to spend the majority of the tour on the west side of Henry Island, where I typically can spot great wildlife. A few days ago, we saw Harbor Seals, Stellar Sea Lions, Harbor Porpoise, Bald Eagles, and 10 varieties of sea birds, shore birds, and migratory ducks. Two weeks ago we spotted a Minke Whale in that area, which is why I love winter paddling in the San Juan Islands. You never know what you'll see.
Thanks for tuning in. Call or write with any questions or comments. I'll give an update on tomorrow's tour.
