Bird feeders are a lot of fun

 of course the robins have a lot of places to feed














Hummingbirds are also fascinating 
to watch at our feeders







 We have our own now also

Alaska, one of my bucket list items


I got ot go to Alaska with my son, his family 
and my wife in August,
I have always wanted to go and when the chance 
presented itself I had to do it. 
Here are a few images form the trip 
and I hope to blog many more when I get the chance.

Salmon spawning in stream near Whittier, Alaska


 I should have used a filter to reduce the reflection off the 
water but didn't have it with me. My Bad!


Got to photograph one of the local young residents.
Young Bald Eagle


Many more to come from a 10 day trip to Anchorage, 
Palmer, Seward, Whittier, and Girdwood Alaka
