Killer Whales in Monterey Bay!

On May 4, New School’s 10th Outdoor School & Character Development program sent half the students out on the new whale rescue boat with Mother Nature’s Temple and the other half went on a nature hike through Elkhorn Slough.

The students who went out on the whale rescue boat saw quite a few orcas.

Captain Mark Kesterson said it’s one of only a few times he’s seen them in his 15 years in the Monterey Bay and that these sightings were by far his best.
