It was a superpod!

You know it’s what keeps things going – when the three resident pods of killer whales come together to mate & jump around & play with one another, it’s called a superpod… both Sandy Buckley & Jim Maya wrote today to confirm that yesterday’s gathering on the westside was, indeed, a superpod. Jim doublechecked with Ken Balcomb, too…
Since the gestation period for killer whales is something like 17 months, we’ll check in November 2010 whether yesterday was Father’s Day, too. (The photo above is some of J pod, from Jeanne Hyde, sent along by Jim Maya yesterday.)
