Aurora in Healy, March 2023

Moose and Pika

Moose near Savage River
Pika at Savage Rock

The little pika above looked particularly bunny-like.  Perhaps his ears are a bit larger than normal?

Pika 2023, also in Denali NP

The adorable and industrious pikas are related to rabbits.  I always enjoy watching them. 

Mom and Calf at Denali NP
Wait, this looks interesting!
Need to check this out
The calf studied the sign intently

I also enjoyed watching this mother moose and her young calf.  Mom seemed to have a destination in mind, while the calf kept getting distracted.

Fishing Seward (Nash Road side)

Late yesterday, we arrived in Seward, camping for several days at Riptide RV Resort. Today, C caught his daily limit of 6 sockeye salmon.  Our supper was half of the smallest salmon, plus 3 salmon bellies.

Limit!  Four of the six he caught

Weather permitting,  tomorrow we take an 8.5-hour Kenai Fjords tour to Northwestern Glacier.  We hope to see whales, glaciers, and interesting birds.
