Just came back from the Chilkoot River in Alaska and thought I'd share these with you. Comments ad suggestions are welcome, as usual.

Moderator, please remove the bear photo from the bird section.

Thanks, and sorry about the confusion.

Those are some good shots.
Stellars are my favorite Jay.

Thank you for your kind words. If you ever have a chance to go up there, May and June are THE months for bird fans, while November is best for bald eagles. Of course, bears are there from spring to very late fall--in the Chilkoot River valley that pretty much means brown bears (grizzlies).

Thanks, Christian. It helped that the eagle was about level with my position--something that does not happen very often...

Yes, I agree. The perspective is quite flattering for a bird-in-flight, as opposed to a shot from far below. Nice.
