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.

No orcas present.

We've heard no calls for several hours, though our Critical Point hydrophone is down & we're deaf in Robson Bight.

No calls but orcas nearby

The I33s are headed west, on the Cracroft Island side of the Strait, opposite Robson Bight. They are silent, for the moment (CrPt is working again).
