After having an amazing encounter with small groups of Dall's Porpoises, literally 100's of Harbor Porpoises, and about a dozen Steller Sea Lions feeding on Skates off of Patos Island this afternoon, we found J-Pod (and part of K-Pod) traveling northbound in tight formation west of Alden Bank at 2:45 PM. It was a truly breathtaking sight to see! (see above photo)
