July 18, 2022 – An adventure up to Boat Passage where we got to watch two 15 yr old male orcas, T49A2 and T65A3, hunting harbor seals in the shallows. Other cool sights included bald eagle nests, bald eagles, harbor seals with pups, black oystercatchers, a great blue heron and stunning geology on Flattop Island and along the coast of Saturna Island.
