We had a phenomenal day at Glacier Bay National Park. The sun was out, as was the wildlife. The bow was the place to be.
Please enjoy the dialogue of the day from the bow:
Ah, Lovely Sunrise.
Dall’s porpoise!
Killer whales!
Oo, swans!
Calving center!
Bald eagle on ice.
Brown bear,
That’s a big one.
Bald eagle in nest.
I wish someone would find me a marmot.
Marmot at 10!
Where?
Do you see that crack in the rock?
To the left you’ll see a tree.
Now go below the tree to the round rock.
6 goats plus bonus outcast goat.
Low goats on ledge,
wedged in nicely.
Goats, goats everywhere, and a marmot here or there.
Two puffins.
Nice beak action.
It’s like “I Spy” out here.
Low goat at 11.
Oh, really low goat.
Oh, yea that’s a fella.
Goats looking right at us, folks, good goat face.
Oh, and whale spots at 1.
Oh boy, I’m exhausted.
That’s ok, take it one goat at a time.
There’s a spout off the point. Classic humpback.
Oh, glaucous winged gulls nesting at 2.
And otters!
Fly by puffins!
Porpoising harbor porpoise!
Needless to say, we had a good time.
