Long-Tailed Jaeger, Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska.
hey Folks,
I just got back in from a long and really cool trip to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge - awesome place! This is a photo of a Long-tailed Jaeger, sitting on a small mound on the coastal plain, taken around 1:00am; gotta love that summer arctic thing!
I’ve got about a million things to do, so this is just a quick short post - but do stay tuned. I have some ground-breaking stuff here, new, never before taken photos from the Refuge, and some discussion that will likely amaze a number of readers - the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a topical place right now, with the oil prices, and all, and I’m sure you’ll find some of my findings very interesting, maybe a little disturbing (or disturbed), and even surprising.
Cheers
Carl

Can’t wait to see more. Then again, this can’t be from the refuge, it is a barren, worthless piece of wasteland - why bother to project it.
I can’t believe we are about to go… what … Round 4 or 5 with this again??
Beautiful shot by the way. Guess I have to start thinking of you as a bird photographer…

Hey Ron,
Oh, it’s ‘amazing stuff’ alright - you’ll see.
Stay tuned.
Hey Mark,
Thanks - but don’t call me a ‘bird photographer’ - “hack” might be closer to the truth.
As for the Refuge, it’s way higher than Round 4 or 5 .. probably closer to 10-15 - this is the 2nd piece of legislation just this year, and it’s only June.
Cheers
