Salmon Bank extends south into the Strait from Cattle Point (the
American Camp area on San Juan Island.) Intriguing report! Sounds like
booby behavior, doesn't it?

Hi Tweets,
I recieved this note (third hand) in an e-mail of a different topic. It
came from an "Orca List Serve". Sorry I don't know anything else about
it. Maybe someone with more time on their hands can research it and at
least find out where Salmon Bank is. Perhaps the San Juans?? Sounds like
the observer is unaware of the Bellingham sighting from earlier this
summer
