There's a new whale calf in the L Pod.

Jami Nagel took these pictures of the baby orca on Saturday off Port Townsend.

The Center for Whale research says the calf is traveling with a 14-year-old female and a 32-year-old male orca.

Proof of the new calf brings the population of Southern Resident orcas up to 86.
