Tracy Arm - Mountain Goats

We saw this family of 11 mountain goats just shy of the North Saywer Glacier. They were right at the tide line.

Whale Watching - Bubble Net feeding

Image
My pictures just don't capture how cool it is to see bubble net feeding in real time. It is quite a sight! The whales dive deep, swim in a spiral of up to 30m diameter and release a ring of bubbles, which encircle their prey – eg fish, krill etc. The whales then swim upwards through the center of this ring, mouths agape and eat the prey.
