Sunny weather up north...

 

Its been a few weeks, but really nice up here in Alaska.  I've been taking some pictures, but not a lot.  We've gone to Hidden Falls Hatchery and found a lot of bears there, here they are eating salmon...

And squabbling between themselves.

There are lots of mamas and cubs there, and many of them have three cubs!

The salmon are the dog salmon, of course.  The Chum.

Also I've found a few Ancient Murrelets.  

And this otter has a question!

This one is snoozing

A curious sea lion...

And a hidden baby oystercatcher

The Surfbirds are starting to come in...

Here's a shot of Cross sound from George Island towards Brady Glacier

Another Ancient Murrelet

And A Black Turnstone

this bear only had one ear.

And this one was pretty skinny, but walked in front of the ship, so it was a nice shot.

Of course more otter pictures are great

This one was relaxing in the sun!
