--Boundary_(ID_Z2MgZWSCEBmdzLH0F1/p0A) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT There was a brief report on this on Aug. 13 on the late CTV News, and the event witnessed that day (Thurs.) included the orcas attacking and killing and then feeding on an unfortunate minke whale, all witnessed by a whale-watching boat or boats. The CBC News report on Aug. 14 said that a scientist group on Friday also saw some orcas, and got some video and other photos to compare with what was gotten on Thursday, so that they might be able to identify the pod of orcas involved. The Aug. 14 newscast also showed footage of at least two humpback whales. On the CBC sign-off, I think they said "George Cove, Newfoundland?", but I haven't tried to look that up. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville P.S. The CTV News report on Aug. 13 also said that someone had seen a couple of great white sharks, but I didn't hear where that may have occurred. ----------------------- Begin forwarded message: > From: Richard Stern <sternrichard@gmail.com> > Date: August 14, 2010 8:56:42 PM ADT > To: NatureNS <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> > Subject: [NatureNS] Orcas off Nfld > Reply-To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > > For NS whale-watchers to keep an eye out for - this evening on the > CBC news was an item about a pod of Orcas (Killer whales) that were > watched off the S. coast of Newfoundland , attacking a Minke whale > over a 4 hour period - very unusual for Atlantic Canada. > > Richard > > -- > ################# > Richard Stern, > 317 Middle Dyke Rd. > Port Williams, NS, Canada > B0P 1T0 > > sternrichard@gmail.com > ################### --Boundary_(ID_Z2MgZWSCEBmdzLH0F1/p0A) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable <html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; = -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "> There was a brief report on this on Aug. 13 on the late CTV News, and = the event witnessed that day (Thurs.) included the orcas attacking and = killing and then feeding on an unfortunate minke whale, all witnessed by = a whale-watching boat or boats. <div><br></div><div>The CBC News = report on Aug. 14 said that a scientist group on Friday also saw some = orcas, and got some video and other photos to compare with what was = gotten on Thursday, so that they might be able to identify the pod of = orcas involved.</div><div><br></div><div>The Aug. 14 newscast also = showed footage of at least two humpback whales. = </div><div><br></div><div>On the CBC sign-off, I think they said = "George Cove, Newfoundland?", but I haven't tried to look that up. = Cheers from Jim in Wolfville<div><br></div><div>P.S.
