I am beyond excited for the arrival of brand new baby humpback whales in the channel! Despite being battered by storms on land, those in the sea likely benefit from upwelling caused by high winds. This process replaces warm surface water with nutrient-rich cold water, leading to increased phytoplankton growth that feeds krill and anchovies – a favorite food source for California’s humpback population. I’m looking forward to welcoming some new faces to the channel, and catching up with some old friends 🐋🌊

In recent times I’ve turned my attention from trying to understand every little thing about the natural world, to simply enjoying the tranquility it greets me with. Living in the moment and appreciating what lies before you can be hard. As humans we tend to look towards the future, or dwell in the past. But I told myself I’d focus more on being in the present this year. I don’t need to know who every single whale is, I don’t need to read ocean temperatures and chlorophyll levels to predict where feeding aggregations may or may not show up. Simply enjoying the graces I’ve been given is a huge goal for me this year. Take what comes your way and be thankful for the lessons these moments teach! I encourage you to do the same!

Have you heard the story of “FLUE?” 🐋

If not checkout my latest YouTube video about this very unique blue whale/ fin whale hybrid! He is one of a kind across our oceans, and has been well documented by collective over the years. I’ve been lucky enough to have seen this whale on three different occasions 🙌🏻

This whale is also theorized to be the mystery behind the 52 hertz whale, a strange series of recorded calls that don’t exactly match the frequency of other known whale calls.

Eye contact with the great whales creates a connection so deep, it rivals the seas they face. When you look into their eyes, you can tell someone is looking back. There is beauty, intelligence, and an overwhelming expression of the power of the oceans in their gaze. It’s without a doubt my favorite moment while out at sea 🌊

Moments tend to pass quickly, but this one will stick with me forever (III) — After performing 3 of the most incredible breaches I’ve ever seen, L87 “Onyx,” here treated me to a moment I had only encountered once before up to this point in my career. In slow motion, big ol’ Onyx seemed to hit a small wave with the force of a large truck, turn on his side, and stare directly at me. With a puff of water accentuating his powerful exhale, I felt an otherworldly connection to this endangered whale I will probably never experience again. As he stared at me, and I stared at him, the impact the southern resident killer whales have on our world couldn’t be more clear. These animals are cognizant. Cunning. Curious. Compassionate. They care for one another like you and I care for our loved ones, significant others, and role models. I believe they are as curious of us as we are of them. There was no reason for this whale to do what he did. To treat me and our passengers to an incredible show of raw power, beauty, and grace, let alone an unforgettable moment frozen in time...

If you want to learn more about Onyx, and his kind, please visit and for information on this incredibly endangered population of killer whales. 74 of his kind are left alive today on our planet. The amount of history, culture, and purpose that could be lost in this species, would truly leave the world in a darker place.

Moments tend to pass quickly but this one will stick with me forever (II) — After being mugged by this whale and one of its buddies for well over an hour, the pair quickly turned and b-lined straight towards one of the many bait-balls the channel had to offer. Even though we were surrounded by well over 20 humpback whales, and countless amounts of dolphins, sea lions, and sea birds, these two beings stood out. They clearly had an overwhelming interest in us that had them spyhopping and rolling around beside the Even when they turned away to feed, it seemed as though they just couldn’t keep their eyes off us. It is extremely rare for a humpback whale to keep its eyes open during a lunge, but I’m sure thankful this whale did. I felt a connection that day with a wild animal I’ve only ever felt twice before. Locking eyes with these sentient animals is unlike anything I’ve ever felt, and I encourage everyone to #getonaboat in hopes of experiencing something that can only be described as magic ✨

Moments tend to pass quickly, but this one will stick with me forever (I) — After finding jagged CA216B and one of her juveniles, we were lead to another group of ~5+ killer whales. I immediately recognized the big sprouting male CA138A, as that pod had been spotted in Monterey a few months before. However this whale who was traveling with the 138’s approached our vessel and stared me straight in the eye as I captured this portrait. Weeks later, eye patch recognition and some help from revealed this whale to be Star, matriarch of California’s most beloved killer whale pod! Not sure why she was traveling with the CA138’s (possibly mating?) but about 10 minutes later we found the rest of her family coming in from the opposite direction. This is easily the most memorable and thought provoking encounter I’ve ever had on the I’m so thankful for the people, opportunities, and moments this company has given me. Taken on October 5th, 2019
