Transients encountered off Pedder Bay
towards Race Rocks, March 21, 2008

A lone kayaker watches as T49B passes close by.

Report and photographs by Mark Malleson.


March 21 I spotted the T49A's and T36A with 36A1 in Pedder Bay at 1:30 p.m. They were feeding on something fairly significant as there were a lot of gulls picking up scraps as they were frollicking around. There were a few squeaks and whistles heard at the surface. They were slowly west bound but doubled back to the east when they got into Race Passage and were last seen milling east of Race Rocks.
