What an epic day we had yesterday!🖤🤍😊

[Karen Munro @kasmunro]

Yesterday we were treated to a spectacle of Orca, Fin Whale, Minke, Common Dolphin & Porpoise whilst out in The Minch with @HebrideanWhales from Gairloch. World class whale watching right here in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@kasmunro @HebrideanWhales @NorthCoast500 @HWDT_org @VisitScotland Pleasure to have you on-board Karen! What an epic day!!🖤🤍

@ScotlandDanders @kasmunro @SeaWatchersUK @SunnysidePri @SteveBackshall @Dolphinsighting @Natures_Voice @HWDT_org From April - June, there's a great chance to see orcas anywhere in northern Scotland from Aberdeen and Mull north. Hotspots are the Pentland Firth, Caithness, Orkney and Shetland with a short lived hotspot at Fraserburgh early May. Other times of year head to Shetland!

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

The last few weeks of watching #orcas in #scotland have been tremendous!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🖤🤍
Here's ID 195, a member of the 64s matriline as they passed just a few metres from us stood onshore at Freswick, Caithness. #orca #killerwhale

[Julia Sutherland @jcqsutherland]

A good spotting scope makes a huge difference to land-based cetacean watching and identifying seal species at a distance. Shout out to @TruluckAtSea and @opticronuk for helping us to secure the kit this year!

@MC_org @kasmunro @SeaWatchersUK @SunnysidePri @SteveBackshall @Dolphinsighting @Natures_Voice @HWDT_org Awwww thank you!🙂

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

@SunnysidePri @kasmunro @SeaWatchersUK @SteveBackshall @Dolphinsighting @Natures_Voice @HWDT_org @icelandic_orcas @fipsamarra It's always always super exciting to see orcas 🙂 We'll have to sort something out to pay you all a visit. Riley would also love to meet you all 🙂🐶 (as long as there's treats!🤣)

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

@SunnysidePri @kasmunro @SeaWatchersUK @SteveBackshall @Dolphinsighting @Natures_Voice @HWDT_org @icelandic_orcas made that incredible discovery. You'll have to ask @fipsamarra to see what she can tell you 🙂

BREAKING: ORCAS AND A BABY PILOT WHALE 😱😱😱😱
Yesterday our team found a group of playful #orcas and to our absolute astonishment amongst the orcas was a newborn pilot whale. There were no observations of pilot whales in the area the whole day. Where did this baby come from? 😱

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

@whale_nerd Or calf rescuers?😊

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

The bottlenose dolphins in the Moray Firth are just absolute beasts!!❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐬🙂 @ Hopeman - Moray Coast https://t.co/syme6omf4P

[Opticron @opticronuk]

One of our partners, @TruluckAtSea, will be at Orca Watch with a selection of Opticron equipment available to buy. And really, what better way to test out a scope or pair of binoculars than by looking at whales?

@FinlayPringle @kasmunro @HughHarrop Yes! Amazing news!😊

[Steve Truluck @TruluckAtSea]

There's a lot of #orca calves being born in the groups we see in Scotland in the last two years!😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Here's ID 170 with her calf that was born last year 🖤🤍 The same pod, the 169s, now has 6 animals in it, 3 of which are less than 4 years old! #orcas #killerwhale
