Steven Rice captured an incredible sight in the Salish Sea Wednesday afternoon as a large group of endangered southern resident killer whales stunned onlookers on shore near Seattle.
Moments later, Rice captured the pod moving slowly alongside a paddleboarder. He says he’s never seen so many orcas in one spot for so long.
“It’s just amazing to see them so close together kind of slowly drifting, kind of like a raft or a slumber party for orcas, I guess,” the Seattle resident said.
And an even larger group has been spotted in the area recently. A ‘superpod,’ more than 70 whales from all three southern resident pods, was spotted hanging out for several days in central Puget Sound.
