Dawes Glacier
Calving of the glacier
Red-breasted Mergansers
Many were still molting and couldn't flying the air so they "flew" across the surface of the water.
Some could fly
Red-throated Loon
This species is the smallest and most widely distributed member of the loon family and unlike other loons, these birds do not carry their young on their back
It's often foggy near the glacier
This glacier is on the cruise ship "tours"
Interesting "scars" on the rock faces near the glacier
Handsome male Surf Scoter
This species rarely dives in water greater than 30' deep and forages in the zone of breaking waves, habitually diving through large, foaming wave crests.
Harbor Seals
Sometimes they have to get off the ice flows in a hurry
Signs to make you smile
