Here's highlights of some of the animals we saw while in Alaska,
|
BEAR
These dots are the only bears we saw on the trip. They were along this beach as we journeyed into Glacier Bay. We did enjoy watching the "bear cam" on TV that showed the bears live at Katmai while they were fishing. |
MOOSE
We saw this moose near Exit Glacier. We also saw 5 moose along or crossing the road as we traveled back to Anchorage. |
SEA
OTTER
In College Fjord we saw dozens of sea otters floating in the water below the boat. Our closest view was of Grandpa in Halibut Cove.
|
ORCA
WHALES
We did see quite a few orca (killer) whales from the cruise boast. But we got our closest views in Kenai Fjords.
|
HUMPBACK
WHALES
We saw humpbacks both on the cruise boat and in Kenai Fjords. Here is the tail of one that was eating fish along the shore while we were in Kenai Fjords. |
STARFISH
In Kenai Fjord we saw lots of purple and orange starfish along the rocks that had been revealed by low tide. |
