David Hyde speaks with Howard Garrett, co-Founder of the Orca Network, about the first signs of arrival of a special group of Gray Whales. Each spring for the past two decades, this small group of a dozen or so whales has broken away from their Pacific Ocean counterparts to spend the spring in Puget Sound. Garrett also explains what these whales have to do with the large mud pits seen at low tide.
