The transient orcas have been around the past couple of weeks, from north Vancouver Island...this one is sometimes called "Captain Hook" by the scientists up there....photo by Jim Maya
It’s always good to hear from friends with their cameras around San Juan Islandit’s good to catch up with Cyndi Brast (), Jim Maya, Alex Shapiro, and Kevin Holmes. Check out their other photos as well!
