A Sail South for a Minke

August 19, 2024 – A fun adventure today as we headed south from Friday Harbor, spotting so much wildlife including harbor seals, bald eagles, great blue herons, raccoons, various diving birds (rhinoceros auklets, common murres and cormorants), Steller sea lions, and some great looks at a minke whale on Salmon Bank.
