Keep watching, and Qila and her baby will come past shortly. (Oh, and Vancouver is on Pacific Time, so if the webcam is dark when you read this, it&#8217;s probably night time for the belugas, so please remember to take another look tomorrow &#8211; I promise it&#8217;s worth it!)<\/p>\n<p>And don&#8217;t they look exactly like my <a href=\"\/shop\/index.php?main_page=product_info&#038;cPath=4&#038;products_id=25\">AquaAmi Beluga Whales<\/a> come to life?
