Sandhill Cranes

 Went to the Beluga Slough at Bishop's Beach and found the Sandhill Cranes, they have started to return for the summer.

Feeding Frenzy

Went out to the Spit before the rain. Spotted Eagles, Seagulls and Crows headed to to the beach. I followed them and found they had found something to eat. I have no idea what they found, these are a few of the pictures I captured.

 

Still in Alaska

Just a quick update. Had a terrible headache just stayed around the house. The next couple of days we had snow, rain and very high winds. The birds were flying backwards. 

Did captured a quick picture of the harbor.

Enjoying Lola’s Birthday Breakfast

I went out today to attempt to capture some of the early Cranes that I heard were starting to arrive. It was very windy again, I did not see many birds and no Cranes.

The PTA from the Russian School were having a fundraiser, I stopped for a Potato Piroski, freshly made and very good. They were getting slammed from the amount of people who showed up.

When I retuned to. The house I found the Hippeastrum was in full bloom.

Anchor Point

 Went for a drive to Anchor Point. Nice clear day to capture the Volcanos across the bay. A juvenile eagle flew by.

I went back to the Homer Spit and captured another table in flight.
