Gray Whale Census numbers updated

weekly, for the latest daily tally, please

see our Census Page.

As the gray whale migration gradually comes to an end off Southern
California, the humpback whales have arrived in full force. Humpbacks are
being seen in the San Pedro Channel, and are being reported in good number
from the Santa Barbara Channel and Monterey Bay. The first blue whales of
the season are beginning to arrive.
