Michael H. Smith, Project Director for Gray Whales Count, discusses why counts differ between these two California sites. >>

Notes:

  • This migration data is available on a daily basis directly from Gray Whales Count, an independent, nonprofit corporation for research and education. GWC continues its close affiliation with UCSB's Coal Oil Point Reserve, Goleta, CA; American Cetacean Society Channel Islands, CA; Cascadia Research Collective in Oympia, WA; and Scripps Whale Acoustic Lab.
  • The data above is compiled and published here for our Gray Whale Migration Updates on the dates shown.
  • A network of whale-watch captains along the migration route also contribute sightings. Their locations are marked as stars on our Gray Whale migration map and labeled as "Observation Posts."
  • Additional gray whale sightings may be contributed by other observers. Go directly to our Gray Whale migration map and to the data archives.
