Spring Has Sprung

Spring is definitely upon us; even here in the Pacific Northwest. As the daylight hours grow longer, the birds begin to chirp in the morning and the temperature warms up ever so slightly, I begin to get excited about what this summer’s Mother Goose experience will bring.

What can we expect to see on Mother Goose in terms of wildlife? We’re never sure what each summer will bring, but one thing we can be sure of is that the more we look, the more we will see! Over the course of the summer we are sure to see sea otters, humpback whales, sea lions and many different species of sea birds. If we’re lucky we may even get to see some Orca whales! On the shore we’ll be looking for brown and black bears. We will also be looking for the white elusive Spirit Bear! What these animals will be doing if we are fortunate enough to see them remains to be seen. In some ways, that’s the fun of it. The element of surprise and the excitement that comes with the chance encounter with these magnificent creatures only adds to the experience.

I never get tired of cruising out on the water with Mother Goose. We are blessed with so many spectacular sites and I am certain that this year will be no different!
