With an amazing start to the season under our belts, we couldn't wait for more. Then, we did. The following weekend was a wash (no trips), thanks to the weather. Alas, this weekend arrived, and we were ready. Unfortunately, the weather and the whales had something else in store for us. On Saturday, the fog monster got us good. We were surrounded by it on varying levels the entire trip. That's okay, we've had some great trips in the fog! Not this time. We searched and searched on Jeffreys Ledge, but had no luck finding anything.
As every day is different (whale- and weather-wise), today was no exception. This time on Jeffreys Ledge, we had whales. We started with none other than two Blue Ocean Society adoptable humpback whales - Pinball and Owl!

We are BIG fans of these two, and couldn't be happier to see them back for another feeding season. To our delight, two other humpback whales were also nearby, Yurt and Grand Manan. There was even a fin whale in the distance. The day ended with a brief look at a basking shark and a minke whale.

We are now running trips daily, so stay tuned for more updates on our adventures out to Jeffreys Ledge. Happy World Oceans Day!
