16 October 2006, Orcalab reports:

Multiple pod calls audible.

Finally, the whales have given up their mystery tour of the east. Sounds like they are westbound on the flooding tide. So far both Gs and A1s (? the A36s) have been heard.

Distant calls audible.

A short while ago the Gs and the A36s together with A12 and A33 travelled north through Blackney Pass. We saw the G3s, G12s,G18s, G29s and the G2s. We did not see the A34s, I31s or G17s.

Distant calls audible.

It sounds like the G17s have just crossed the top end of Blackfish Sound after travellling through Weynton Pass. They will be following the others into Queen Charlotte Strait. Meanwhile, both dolphins and transients have occupied the Strait after the resident orcas left to the west.

No calls but orcas nearby

We just heard blows in Blackney Pass. The silent orcas were Strait bound along the far side of Blackney. A few dolphin calls is all we have heard since.
