EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking photograph by Ken Archer, captured through Danita Delimont's RF (Royalty-Free) collection, we witness a moment of awe-inspiring majesty as an Orca, also known as a killer whale (Orcinus orca), surfaces in the Salish Sea. The Orca, a powerful and intelligent marine mammal, is the largest member of the dolphin family and is known for its distinctive black and white pattern. The Orca's massive dorsal fin breaks the tranquil ocean surface, revealing the apex predator's muscular physique. Its sleek body glistens in the sunlight, reflecting the shimmering waves below. The Orca's eyes are sharp and focused, scanning the surrounding waters for prey or potential threats. The Salish Sea, located in the Pacific Northwest, is a rich and diverse ecosystem, providing the perfect habitat for these magnificent creatures. The Orca's surfacing is a reminder of the beauty and power of nature. These social and communicative animals are known to live in pods, which can consist of up to 100 individuals. They are known for their complex vocalizations, which include clicks, whistles, and body slaps, which they use to communicate with each other. This photograph captures the essence of the Orca's grace and power, inviting us to appreciate the wonders of the natural world. It is a testament to the importance of preserving the habitats of these magnificent creatures and protecting them from threats such as habitat loss, pollution, and hunting. By observing and learning from the Orca, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the intricacies of the marine ecosystem and the role we play in its preservation.
