If you had eyes on Burrard Inlet on Friday, you might have been lucky enough to spot a pod of killer whales swimming near the surface.
At around 9:30 a.m., North Vancouver wildlife photographer Perry Edwards trained his camera lens on the pod, identified as the T90 pod, as they exited the inner harbour.
Edwards photographed both male and female , as they moved westbound, passing in front of Lions Gate Wastewater Treatment Plant in West Vancouver. Details in the images show scarring on the area known as the saddle patch, a lighter-coloured section behind the dorsal fin on the whales’ back.
