05 September 2007, Orcalab reports:

Multiple pod calls audible.

Groups are streaming off to the west: First the Rs (they stayed on the Johnstone Strait side going west) and then the A36s with the I15s (who just went north in Blackney Pass and into Blackfish Sound). An I31 and/ or I11 group is currently approaching the entrance to Blackney Pass on the Johnstone Strait side. All this and a touch of northeern lights too. We have not heard any A4,A5, A12 or A30 calls yet.

Distant calls audible.

A short while ago we began to hear A4 and A5 calls close to Critical Point. Thse are groups coming up from the east and westbound. Unfortunately, the Critical Point hydrophone has developed a problem and it is hard to listen. Fortunately, the groups are beginning to be heard on the CP system.

We think the A4 group followed the A5 group to the west.

Interesting, on the last post I accidently clicked on Flower Island. A little bit early but the A35s made it true. They have gone through Blackney Pass and into Blackfish Sound. Meanwhile, a different A4 group is heading west in the Strait. We have not heard A5s for a while.
