So, what are today’s Strands answers for game #318?
Drumroll, like…
…and the spangram was WHALES.
Strands #318
Thar she blows!
It turns out I know more about whales than I thought!
I was mightily aided by spotting the spangram of WHALES right away.
It was hiding in plain sight, spelt from left to right across the middle of the grid.
HUMPBACK is the first category of whales I think of, and I found it in the top-right corner.
Eventually I came up with BALEEN, which it turns out is a bang out of whale.
Top half complete, I moved on to the bottom section.
I spotted SPERM in the bottom-left corner, followed by GRAY immediately above it.
Keeping the color theme going, I found BLUE on the right, which isolated the two final answers.
ORCA was in the middle, and RIGHT was appropriately tucked in the bottom-right corner to complete the puzzle.
