San Juan Whale Watching

Another day off, and probably one of my last for the season. Captain Pete drove the boat today and Nan was the naturalist (see her report from today below).

My wife and I took our 20 month old son down to Seattle and spent this morning at the Seattle Aquarium. It was a blast, especially since our son, Brendan, was totally into it. If you have never been, you should definitely check it out.

One exhibit at the museum has several types of Northwest Sea Birds. These are amazing little creatures we often see on our tours. We always explain how the birds “fly” underwater to feed on schooling bait fish. However, we rarely get to actually see them “fly” underwater from the boat. So, I thought it would be interesting to take some video at the Seattle Aquarium and post it here. They really are amazing!
