Birds of Glacier Bay












Part one of two of the birds I saw in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska.  Granted that I didn't get pictures of all the different birds I saw, these are just some. First there is the Palagic Cormorant. There a little different than the double-crested cormorants we see at the beach or at Conowingo Dam. They're mostly black with the white at the base of their wings. Then of course you'll see the ever present Bald Eagle. We saw them everywhere. We did, by the way, see some Golden Eagles from the bus in Denali. And finally for today, is the Black-legged Kittiwake. Yeah, I though it was just another gull, too.
