Birds -- Alaska, May-June 2011

I went with Vivek Khanzode and Luis Villablanca on an Alaska bird photography trip admirably led by Ashok Khosla, May 26 - June 5, 2011. We started with a few days in the Anchorage area, where we were greatly helped by Doug Lloyd, and then moved on for most of a week in Nome. Mostly good weather, and great times, tundra-crawling and all. Thanks to everyone! Some pictures from the trip below, and more linked at the bottom of this page.
