It's said variety is the spice of life, from our sightings today that is a true statement. We started of the day with a pod of Harbor porpoise, actually being good, they normally are quite shy and don't get to close. Then to a shy Minke who decided to move off before getting a good look. We also had a big Harbor Seal. As we left those animals we headed out to the ledge and we had 2 Humpback whales!! Finally they have begun to return to the ledge. As we were gazing at these 2enormous animals I noticed the very distinctive head of not one but two Right whales! As we have posted before they are highly critically endangered! To see one is amazing but 2 life changing. We also had a big Moon Jelly come by the boat, Blue Fin Tuna, 5-7 Minke whales and blows of fin whales all around. What made the day even more amazing was the fact we were all alone,not a boat in site, it was just us and the open ocean and an abundance of marine life, it does not get better than that!!

Your Moon jelly is actually a Lion's Mane, nice find!
If you see it again don't take a pitchfork to it like the dingbat lifeguard!
