Surf & turf on the BC Coast
A few shots from the BC coast last week. Was a little foggy offshore...
Killer whales:
Stellar sealions:
Humpback whale (tail portion ):
Bears on the beach:
I was running out of light for the bear picture and had to use my knee as a tripod so not as crisp as it should be.

Sparra: pic's from a boat (the bear one I took from an old float we tied our boat to for the night). I was about 10-12 km offshore, except for the picture of the sealions on the rock. One of those rare days when the swell isn't 1-2 metres (or better).
Stick: well, they also get called "hair pigs" over here.
Coach: the amount of salmon out on that bank was amazing. Lots of krill in the water which meant lots of bait fish which brings the whales, sealions and bigger fish.
I lost a nice size Chinook salmon to a sealion out there. The fish was taking it's third run and about a 100 metres from the boat a big bull 'lion nailed it. If you have ever seen the TV documentaries where a great white hits a seal on the surface and clears the water it was similar to that. I got my plug and a fish head back...
