Message from the observers: High winds made it difficult to locate and track whales, as did a very large sun glare. Many of our gray whales were close to shore: one pair was so close that you could see them underwater. We tracked several fin whales; one was within a mile offshore. We also spotted common dolphin and bottlenose dolphin./font>
