The+Birds+of+the+San+Juan

During our trip to the San Juan Islands we failed to see any whales, which was a big dissapointment. However, we were able to see several different types of birds. From Bald Eagles to Sea Gulls. It was interesting to learn about bald eagles because i never knew that they had life long mates. Also, I learned that sea gulls and different type of water birds rely on whales and underwater predators to survive. The underwater predators circle schools of fish into a big ball just under the surface. This is a good spot for boat captains to look for whales at. The bait balls we saw had no whales, but they had many different kinds of birds.
