On our evening tours a small group enjoyed a trip west from Victoria, on very calm waters. At Race Rocks, there were California Sea Lions relaxing on the rocks, along with many Harbour Seals doing the same. The Olympic mountains cleared and we could see Mt. Baker nicely in the distance while on the water. In Whirl Bay, there were two bald eagle nests to view, along with a bald eagle that was perched on a rock just past that area. We collected some bull kelp to look at and taste, and had a lovely trip back with the sun setting along the way.
