Yesterday was a great day for Killer Whale sightings for our guides in Tofino! In the morning Howie Tom picked up the T109B’s and T109C’s at Cleland Island. These two gangs spent the afternoon slowly making their way to Lennard Light eating many seals along the way. These two gangs are the offspring of T109 (aka Big Momma) and are frequent visitors to Clayoquot Sound.

In the afternoon Tim Tim picked up a lone bull of Rafael Point. T065A2 has only been photographed in our waters a handful of times. He made his way down the coast and through the Tofino Harbour and into Fortune Channel. Hopefully the Bear Watching Tours will see him this morning!
