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.

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.
