A marina biologist captured a rare sight in the Monterey Bay over the weekend. 
Nancy Black, a marine biologist with Monterey Bay Whale Watch and the director of the California Killer Whale Project, said that on Saturday, a group of orcas was spotted. 
The group included an adult female with her offspring, according to Black. 
"They had fed on a few sea lions earlier in the day, and when we found them, they were spy-hopping, breaching, pec and tail slapping and just very surface active. The youngsters were chasing each other, and the group was rolling together with lots of touching," Black said.

    A few days ago it was 800 seals on a Monterrey beach. Orca food?

    The only thing that I agree with the left on is preservation of wild spaces and wildlife. Everything else they do is a criminal conspiracy.

    Have you heard RFK, Jr.’s environmental positions? There is no one more qualified to be in charge of America’s environment than Bobby Kennedy. His first task, blowing the trillion dollar carbon con to hell. If you haven’t watched the interview with Carlson last night. Do It.

    I watched last night and honestly towards the end when he was talking passionately about the animals, the environment and God I teared up. We have GOT to win, and RFK being involved in fixing our food, medicines and environment ...I just can’t even find the words to describe how great Trump’s team would be for the USA.
I’m guessing the reason the DNC worked so hard to shut RFK out is Blackrock and their carbon schemes- among others.

    Orcas? A couple of Noldor High Elves could take care of them in a flash.

    However, if we start seeing orcas outside the Golden Gate, it could be the end of the large Great White shark population and a large number of sea lions off the coast of San Francisco--orcas are powerful, VERY intelligent apex predators in the ocean. Park rangers will be asking why they haven't seen many sharks or sea lions/seals around the Farallon Islands.

    I’ve seen orcas playing Frisby with seals on the Bay.
Then they eat ‘em. Pink water...
