I was out with guests who booked a Marine wildlife tour with me out of Port McNeill. We made our way down to Blackfish Sound where many Humpback Whales were lunge feeding and trap feeding for herring. This time of year is incredible for Humpback behaviour, Lots of above water feeding, Breaching, Pectoral fin slaps, Etc. Humpbacks migrate to our area to strictly feed before migrating to warmer waters like Maui, Hawaii, Mexico to breed.
