Surfing with the alien

If I had a container ship, I would just cruise around the world looking for orcas to dance in the bow wave.

Saw 3 Orcas off Pt. Atkinson today but they ignored us. Never had anything but Dall's porpoises surf my bow wave - at least they look like mini-Orcas. :D

I saw a pod doing that near Horseshoe Bay from the ferry (admittedly, years ago). Impressive!

Need to find a way to get them to focus on reducing the seal population around here ... :D
