A stellar experience for me on the melting ice pools of the coastal tundra of Alaska's Arctic Ocean's coastline
A canny way away but great to see a large male Black Bear - Kenai, Alaska
Just landed - in glorious technicolour
Wonderful to see a Grizzly with three cubs near Nome, Alaska
Having a preen - almost in black and white
Vibrance on the Alaskan tundra's melting ice
Beneath the crumbling face of a glacier in the Kenai Fjords, Alaska - a Kittlitz's Murrelet bobs about in its niche breeding habitat
Canny Spectacled Eider, Safety Sound near Nome, Alaska
