A rather late post: Yesterday around 20pm we heard, ever so briefly, A5 calls once again. The event was too short lived for us to locate where they were. Today it has been just typical boat noise punctuated by quieter times.

After a day break, we are again hearing the A5s in Johnstone Strait. They are not far from the entrance to Blackney Pass. Last night we briefly heard dolphins in the area.

Today we again heard A5 calls in Johnstone Strait. They were first heard off the entrance to Blackney Pass and then a while later off Robson Bight. We believe they went to the east around 1pm.

We thought that the whales might have left as yesterday we got reports of a large group heading out past Alert Bay and Port McNeill between 1 and 2pm. But just now we are again hearing A5 calss in Johnstone Strait. Wet and windy here today.

Ans now they have joined forces. The A5s and the I31s are travelling together in Johnstone Strait.

The A5s (the A51, A43s confirmed) and the I31 group headed east past Robson Bight a while ago.
