Wow! Looks like an amazing trip. I've always been fascinated by the arctic, and their interesting species of animals. Looks like thats another trip I'll have to plan for the future.

Thanks for sharing

I second every thing everyone has said; but, what I really want is the bird you are using ----- I hope you really have one. I have had so many kinds of birds but I still have not had, and want, is the Solomon Island Eclectus. Eclectus have it all.

Hope you get the rest of you beautiful pictures posted.

Thanks for enriching our lives

a. Pictures are beautiful!

b. Pictures are also proof that seagulls are EVERYWHERE.

c. Another Eclectus lover!! (Don't have one but would love one. The African Grey and Senegal have other ideas.)
