July 15, 2022 – we sailed with a family of Biggs/Transient orcas known as the T65B’s as they came up San Juan Channel right by Friday Harbor. Other cool sights included a bald eagle chick in its nest, a harbor porpoise calf with a collapsed dorsal fin, a raccoon running up the rocks, and a bald eagle up close and personal.
