Dall's Porpoise!

Dall's Porpoise Humpday Takeover from Jessica Davis on Vimeo.

So this was made on my iphone using my new favorite video editing app, Perfect Video Pro. These Dall's porpoise were EVERYWHERE yesterday during our tour. They put on more of a show than the humpbacks did. It was pretty rad :) They look like mini killer whales, but unfortunately they are one of the most hunted cetacean in the world. Over 15,000 are killed every year during the Japanese whale hunts. To learn more about these amazing creatures, check out www.dallsporpoise.org

Until Next Summer, Tracy

So today was our last Tracy Arm trip of the season for our crew. It was a great one! We got dipped into Ice Falls and it was sooo much fun! Surprisingly not as cold as I'd imagined, so we kept going back for more :) Here's the gopro footy... 


We also saw some cool stuff the past few days, so here's some of my favorite recent photos...
