No Blog Posts... No Camera!

I have stopped posting on my Blog for the last few weeks because my camera stopped functioning! But I have a new camera and am ready to start adding posts again!

I saw some of the mot amazing stuff while waiting to get a new camera-

Humpback whales bubble net feeding!
Orca (Killer Whales) Breaching!
Oyster Catchers on Skull Island!
Close hiking encounter with 3 Bald Eagles, a dead porcupine and a black bear cub on Salmon Creek Trail!
...
During one trip we saw Bubble Net feeding, breaching humpbacks, and a calf playing!

I didn't get any photos but I have some great memories and I hope it all happens again.
I have an even better camera now and am ready for action.

Tracy Arm Tour

Breaching Humpback Whale in Stephen's Passage








Entering into Tracy Arm....
This inlet was created and is fed by two tide water galciers which explains the amount of iceburgs seen in the water and the steep cliffs which were carved out by the glaciers as they moved pass.


A Bald Eagle hanging out on an Iceburg!





"Hole in the Wall" Waterfall















The birds seen in the photos below are Pigeon Guillemots


















Fishing for Iceburg chunks "Growlers"




Time to drop the passengers off at their cruiseship!




A beautiful sunset on the way home...

This tour was fun! I did it two days in a row and on the second day... we had a breaching whale in Stephen's Passage on the way there!

Yahoooooo......
