A Nice Christmas Present - New J-Pod Calf!

December 17 was the first sighting of J-48, a new calf born to J-19, Slick. It is estimated that the calf, seen in Puget Sound the morning of the 17th with fetal folds still visible, was probably just a few hours old. This is Slick's fifth calf since her first (J-26) was born in 1991. It will be interesting to find out (hopefully,) who's the baby's father.
