ALASKA ~
It may be a bit early to be thinking about Alaska and taking a tour next spring, but here are a few shots to tempt you anyway!  We just got back from the fall tour to Gambell on Saint Lawrance Island.  The number of Asian vagrants was low to say the least, but we still managed to see a lot of great stuff!
 
These shots are from last spring and include Long-tailed Jaeger, Grizzly Bear, Sabine's Gull, Rustic Bunting, Moose, Green Sandpiper, Red Fox, Green Shank, and a White Ruff!
