VANCOUVER — A B.C. wildlife photographer looking for birds off the shores of Vancouver's Stanley Park has instead captured an unforgettable image of a different animal in flight — an orca leaping from Burrard Inlet.
Frank Lin says he was leading a group of volunteers conducting a water bird survey for the Stanley Park Ecology Society last week when a team member spotted a whale off Brockton Point.
Lin, 28, has had an Instagram account dedicated to wildlife images since 2016 but he says he's never seen orcas breaching in Vancouver's urban waters before. Trites says the last few decades have seen a rise in the population of harbour seals, many of which gather in waters near Stanley Park.
