Stormy day –wind 25 to 30 knots from the east
When I entered the lantern room around 9 a.m. there was a wren. It went through the metal hatch on the floor where there is a hole but soon came back. eventually, I opened the door and it flew out.
The winter wren was previously recorded in October 2016 and April 2014.
Wind from the east at 25 to 30 knots
In the light house around 9 a.m. and noticed splashing to the south.
My binoculars caught the flukes of the whales hitting the water.
I watched and counted the flukes smashing the water 10 times.
Then the whales started breaching.
I counted 50 breaches. When I counted in the teens the 2 whales breached in synchrony, for about 3 breaches. Then one whale seemed to take a break and I saw a few breaths but the other kept leaping! After I counted 36 breaches both whales seemed to take a breath ( I saw 2 breaths ) then started up again until I counted 50.
So beautiful!
It was a wild, windy day
