--Apple-Mail-23-485582478 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed SEPT. 20, 2012 - CBC RADIO News reported today that on Sept. 18 a whale-watching boat encountered an ORCA or KILLER WHALE about 12 km. nw. of Brier Island. Apparently good looks were gotten, breaches were observed, and this whale has a notch in its dorsal fin, which matches earlier sightings of an orca off Grand Manan Island this summer. This tour-boat also saw good numbers of humpback whales, a surface- feeding fin whale, a minke whale, dolphins, and harbour porpoises. Here is a link to today's report in the Chronicle Herald, which also has a nice photo of the breaching orca in the newspaper but not on-line. Orca gives watchers thrills TheChronicleHerald.ca - 7 hours ago (Thurs., Sept. 20/12) It was like hitting the whale-watching jackpot. An orca, or killer whale, not commonly seen in Nova Scotia waters, put on an hour-long show ...
