Herons and Kingfishers

A few more days having photographic fun in Haines Alaska.  Weather was rainy, nobody was catching fish, but two-year-old grizzly cubs were out every day, and Great Blue Herons and Kingfishers were posing much of the time.

Trumpter Swan family along the road.


Cubs would roll over rocks almost as big as they and the cubs and the crows would dine on whatever was underneath. 

Rock rolling takes a lot of work.


Keeping on the move.


Two cubs work together.

Great Blue Heron with an itch.


Just a snack.

Moose in hot water

Liard Hot Springs


Had a lovely four-day stay at Liard Hot Springs.  Campground was great.  Weather was too.  Six moose or more were most co-operative photographically.

Lots of black bears and bison, as well as interesting birds.
