This was a big girl! You can tell females from males because females have necks! That is why only females are collard for research. The males necks are bigger than their heads and the collars slip right off.
Arctic day 6-A big girl!

A week in the High ARCTIC!
I have just returned from a 17 day “life bucket” trip to the high arctic. It has been on the books for 4 years. But Covid put a blanket on that for several years.
It was beyond amazing and I’m going to take a week to show some highlights, and then throw some others in on Faraway Fridays.
This shot was taken at the permanent Ice Edge at 82 degrees north in uncharted waters above Nordaustlandet Norway. The bear here was about 2 football fields away peaking over the edge of an ice berg (see below)
He got up and started speed walking toward us, jumping from ice flat to ice flat.
These guys can REALLY MOVE!
Kingfisher in flight
There are almost always Kingfishers at the three crabs estuary.
Swans in flight
Every year the swans come to Sequim to feed in the fields.
Wildlife Wednesday-Tanzania Don’t even think about it!
This Cape Buffalo is having a starring contest with this lion. I think he’s saying “I have these big horns and I’m not afraid to use them.”
Standing Watch
This Canadian goose stayed with it’s straggling gosling while the other 6 were swimming with dad…(or mom–hard to tell!)
Wildlife Wednesday–Stay close little one
