A complete surprise while on our way into Vancouver via Prince of Whales Butchart Gardens, Adventure crossing combo (not designed to be a whale watching tour) ; Jpod was fishing near the north arm of the Fraser River around 7:30pm. Here, J27 and younger sibling J39 are showing communication and/or foraging behavior; tail slaps, pec [...]
An amazing and informative encounter with endangered killer whales like the one above, unexpected and unavoidable at times (notice our captain following the guidelines, makes the attempt to move the vessel to avoid a close encounter within 100 yards but didn’t realize an animal was right there), changes peoples lives, giving them motivation and passion [...]
A group of southern residents, thought to belong to either K or L pod make their way off while one (female) breaches forward 6 times in total, what a wonderful moment shared by all!
Caught up with Kpod and a few L’s traveling across Haro Strait to the San Juan Island area where they tend to forage. L78 is showing some battle scars, looks like rough play or tough love On the way home, there were a ton of kiteboarders out taking advantage of the high winds… Some rode [...]
I can’t think of a better way to remember this musical legend then by featuring a video our orca friends; Keiko and the southern resident killer whales. From the movie Free Willy, this song was written by Michael and is a story of Keiko’s journey to freedom. Ironically both stars in this video are in [...]
This is a video slide show of some of my photos of killer whales from 2003 to 2007. I selected some of my favorites out of approximately 5000 photos shot during that time. I have seen some interesting times, seen some of the orcas come and go, but as the song says; lucky time never [...]
On the topic of all being related comes probably one of the best illustrated documentaries unifying all of our existences by our host of life and how human behaviors are devestatingly impacting all life on which we depend. HOME on YouTube We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years [...]
Ruffles J1 of the southern resident orca population by now has father several offspring and also must be a grandfather, perhaps a great grandfather! So this shout out is to him! Almost 60 years old, he shows no sign of slowing down. We hope he is with us for many more fathers days to come!!! [...]
A video I created of my friend Jenna kiteboarding. It’s very inspiring to see more women out there picking up the board. I am still training but hope to be riding this year! This video was shot with my new HighDef video camera however was not uploaded as a highdef video but still boasts lovely [...]
Recorded from Orca Sound tonight! Jpod was live on the hydrophone talking for hours! It was very exciting to hear them. Please enjoy this audio clip. To know more about where you can hear them please visit http://www.orcasound.net Jpod blablablabla from Chantelle Tucker on Vimeo.
I believe that now, more then ever, we need to embed our minds into what makes us happy. Because should we decide to submit to paranoia, confusion and fear, we will truly manifest a global nightmare. Keep your minds empty and clean, do what you must to remain free. Kiteboarding is a good exercise in [...]
This is a short video composed of footage shot just following the spill near Robson Bight and Johnstone Strait area in 2007. The orcas seen in this video were also seen swimming through the diesel slick following the spill. I thought it was appropriate to exhibit them in a video format. This is a short [...]
