BREMERTON, Wash. (AP) — A pod of transient killer whales has been visiting Puget Sound this week.

The Kitsap Sun reports up to six orcas were spotted Wednesday and Thursday near Bremerton. The Orca Network reports five of the whales were spotted Thursday afternoon near Edmonds.

The transient killer whales are hunting for seals. The resident Puget Sound orca population feeds on salmon.
