Whale Watch Week in Oregon is returning in-person for the first time since the pandemic.
This photo provided by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department shows a Whale Watch Week volunteer try to spot gray whales with binoculars from the Whale Watch Center in Depoe Bay, Ore., on Wed., Dec. 28, 2022. – Whale Watch Week in Oregon returned in-person for the first time since the pandemic on Wednesday, drawing visitors hoping to catch a glimpse of the annual gray whale migration to the state's coastline.
“She's seeing the spray and calling it out,” Stefanie Knowlton told The Associated Press on the phone as she watched the center's volunteer, the crowd cheering in the background. “There's just so much energy. You could just really feel that people were ready to come back and watch whales together.” One of the sites, Cape Meares, was closed Wednesday after strong winds the previous day knocked over trees, Knowlton said.
