9/12/19 - Three post-menopausal females dubbed “The Golden Girls” were seen traveling south together near Carmel at high speed. From top to bottom they are CA26, CA36, and CA180.

These three have been observed for over the past 30 years, and are believed to be aged anywhere from their 50′s to their 70′s! CA26 and CA36 have been known to travel together, but CA180 is a new addition: her regular traveling companion and presumed older son CA24 went missing last year, and her additional traveling companion male N25 has not been spotted yet this season.

It’s #FunFactFriday! Did you know that L87 “Onyx” is a L Pod whale who has traveled with K and L pods since his mother L32 “Olympic” died in 2005? He has been seen with K7 “Lummi”, K11 “Georgia”, J2 “Granny” and most recently the J17s. He is one of the few known cases of resident orcas switching pods permanently. ⁠ Photo by@vitalocean⁠ #whaletales #SRKW #orca #killerwhale #trivia #DYK #Onyx #JPod #KPod #L87 #whalewatching #whalesareaweome #nofishnoblackfish #whales https://www.instagram.com/p/B1O2M1nAhIM/?igshid=1dje4c8yrqde5
