SEE IT: Underwater video, pics of gray whales in Puget Sound published



OLYMPIA, Wash. -- Cascadia Research on Monday released new photos and an underwater video of gray whales swimming through the Puget Sound.

In the videos, the camera on one whale is knocked off by another whale.

Cascadia said these were collected under a scientific research permit in collaboration with Stanford University.

"AWESOME NEW UNDERWATER VIDEO exists for the “Saratoga Gray” whales that have just arrived for their annual visit to Puget Sound!" Cascadia Research wrote.
