However, they seemed to remain tightly bonded. The pair were inseparable as they slowly drifted and quietly spoke with one another amidst the pickerel weed and sedges.

I have a huge backlog of photos from spending two I have a huge backlog of photos from spending two weeks sailing along the SE Alaskan coast. So I'm going to release the photos in batches.

First, some context because I don't think I fully explained why I was in Alaska. I was hired by a small interpretive guiding company, Raven, to work as a naturalist for a couple of Tauck (a luxury tour company) tours that were sailing aboard a Silversea cruise ship. The tour was one week, starting in Anchorage, then to Seward (where we boarded the ship), Juneau, Skagway, Sitka, Ketchikan, and ending in Vancouver, BC. I went southbound with one group, then went back north (basically in reverse order) with a second group of guests.

My job as the naturalist was to prepare and give presentations on the animals, ecosystems, and natural history of SE Alaska. Having never been to Alaska previously, I spent dozens of hours preparing presentations and familiarizing myself with the landscape and wildlife before departing for the voyage.

One of the most exciting elements of the trip was seeing glaciers! We saw dozens, some way up close, and others high up on distant mountainsides. I'll leave this post as a collection of just a handful of glacier-related images.

1. Hubbard Glacier: largest tidewater glacier in North America and one of only a few growing glaciers. For context the glacial wall soars 300ft above the water's surface. 
2. Ash lines in the glacial ice
3. Piece of a glacial moraine
4. An iceberg that calved off of Hubbard Glacier
5. Davidson Glacier
