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

I'm not in New Hampshire anymore...at least not fo I'm not in New Hampshire anymore...at least not for the next month and a half. I'm currently driving out West to Washington, for what is now my 7th trip crossing the country. This time, I'm going west to see friends and to work as a naturalist on a luxury cruise ship for a couple weeks in Alaska!! This opportunity opened up to me just about a month ago as sort of a last minute arrangement, and I feel like I would have been foolish not to jump at this. I'll be giving nature and natural history presentations, and accompanying guests on land excursions. It's going to be a fascinating and hopefully thrilling adventure!
A large male black bear decides to take a dip in w A large male black bear decides to take a dip in what could reasonably be called his vernal pool, on a property owned and stewarded by @squamlakesconservationsociety . I documented at least 10 unique individuals (but likely closer to 12 bears) using this vernal pool, or the mud that was left behind when it dried up, last year. The male in these photos spent significantly more time at the vernal pool than any other bear. This year, I'm looking forward to documenting the bear activity there throughout the entire summer. Last year, I only ran a camera here from mid July to the end of September. Nikon D750, 1/125, f/7.1, auto ISO, -2.3 exposure, 35mm, with @camtraptions PIR V4 sensor #bear #blackbear #cameratrapping #nh #wildlife
