Herring Season




Spring is here! The herring are coming to Sitka and so are the fisherman! Our harbor is full right now. This is big business up here, so it's really exciting! With the fish come the whales. We saw quite a few today, and I put the best pic I got up. You can see the spout really well (that little puff looking things right above the shoreline!). They were really far away, but we could see them great with our binocs. Can't wait to see everyone playing bumper boats in the next few days.

  1. It looks so beautiful there. I could see the spout of spray on the second pictures. That is really cool. Kathy
