A Comox Valley family had a meeting with a humpback whale family recently, between Comox and Texada Island.
Carolyn and Steve Touhey were out on their boat with a friend on Sunday, when they spotted the telltale whale spouts nearby.
91裸聊视频淚 think there were four [in the pod] - at one point I thought maybe five, but there were definitely at least four,91裸聊视频 Carolyn said. 91裸聊视频淲e saw the blowholes so we slowed down, but the boat in idle, and just let them go past us.91裸聊视频
Carolyn grabbed her camera, which is equipped with a 60x zoom lens, and recorded the show from a distance.
Carolyn said she had a similar experience at this time last year.
91裸聊视频淥n the same memory card I was looking back to November of 2019 and we saw some spectacular humpbacks that time too91裸聊视频 I think people probably think it91裸聊视频檚 winter so there91裸聊视频檚 no whale-watching, but the whales don91裸聊视频檛 leave. We do.91裸聊视频
The Touheys, who own the Two Eagle Lodge, also had a memorable encounter with a pod of orcas earlier this year.
So is it time to expand their bed and breakfast business to a B&B/adventure tours business?
91裸聊视频淥h, I don91裸聊视频檛 think so,91裸聊视频 said Carolyn with a laugh. 91裸聊视频淏ut I will never say never.91裸聊视频
