The noon trip on the Ocean Magic II brought us out between the Juan de Fuca and Haro Straits. There we found K pod with a few L pod members spread out foraging in a westerly direction. Cappucccino / K21 and Raggedy / K40 were identified. In the afternoon we headed over to Race Rocks Ecological Reserve to view the seals and sea lions hauled out. Later we traveled south to catch up with K pod and the L12 matriline grouped up into a resting line. The animals were slowly heading northeast back toward the San Juan Islands.
