From the Wheelhouse:

A huge thanks to Jared Towers who helped to identify the Transient killer whales that we saw today!  T14;T20;T21;T90;T90B;T124;T124D;T124E.  All of our guests realized what a special encounter we had with these orcas .  Notice in the picture above the injury on the back of the orca...it looks like a possible puncture mark?

We also had breaching humpback whales and Dall's porpoise.  Again today the large concentrations of krill encouraged the humpback whales to lunge feed and also some flick feeding.  One lady came all the way to see Steller sea lions and she was not disappointed .  All around it was a beautiful day with no wind and calm warm weather.
