Weeds grow on walkways, the stands are empty and algae grows in the pools, giving the water a greenish hue.It is here that Wikie and Keijo, a mom and boy pair of orcas, are drifting. They were born in these swimming pools, and for years they performed in programs for groups. Because the park’s closure in January 2025, they no longer have an audience. When they are alone, they “log”, or float at the water’s surface area, according to a court-ordered record released last April.
