It’s not uncommon to see seals skulking around near the tidewater faces of large glaciers, as frequent calving events can shock and stun their marine prey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790769703-4ELP0WJJ8J5O4L5YZTZR/IMG_3233.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Puffin Cliffs — Fjortende Julibreen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587367155-WQ9DYV5A2MT11W6XW12P/Dovekie+on+Ice.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Dovekie (Little Auk) Scoresby Sund It’s not easy to get close to these tiny birds, which nest colonially throughout Greenland. Dovekie are particularly abundant near the edges of large ice floes, where they pursue plankton and other dense patches of marine prey underwater. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587377867-KIWGLXO0I6MFSW346612/Iceberg+in+Scoresby+Sund+Landscape.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Iceberg — Scoresby Sund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587384376-YG6LZG1KSIDJ3AI1V62R/Iceberg+Light+Waterfall.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Iceberg Cascade Sun refracts off the cascading melt stream of an iceberg in Scoresby Sund, East Greenland. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587385598-HSGOL7VIXZOHBLBAURGW/Palanderbukta+and+Wahlenbergfjord+Landscape.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587391920-V10DCBACLH2A626KTVCY/Parasitic+Jaeger+on+Banded+Ice.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Parasitic Jaeger (Arctic Skua) — Scoresby Sund Jaegers (and their close relatives, the skuas) never fail to excite me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587394774-8BCL7E4M0N9VNY2JV14A/Polar+Bear+in+a+Whiteout.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear in White-Out Fog I like this photo because it gives you an idea as to what we’re looking for from the bridge of the ship and from the zodiac. Most bear encounters are far from Kodak moments — we give the animals their space, and let them approach us if they’re so inclined. Nevertheless, it’s critical to always be on the lookout for sights like this — you don’t want to be out in the ice when the fog rolls in… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538598118756-DF29THRE2SGYETDU1ISC/Bear+Wahlenbergfjord+Shore.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear — Palanderbukta, Svalbard A polar bear takes a break from hunting seals to investigate the zodiac. The scars on his face and nose hint at some run-ins with other males. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587412524-4R356STELC47QH5R5D01/Tight+Shot+of+Bear+at+Palanderbukta+Face-on.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear — Palanderbukta, Svalbard Uncertain but holding his ground. Polar bears have a natural curiosity that often leads to lapses in judgement — the scars on this male indicate he’s no stranger to conflict. We kept a very generous distance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587418948-YQ64FM8BDZPEGZ3RN1DF/Walrus+Cow+and+Calf+Wahlenbergfjord.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Walrus Cow & Calf — Palanderbukta A walrus cow keeps a close eye on her curious calf. Despite a growing tourism industry in Svalbard, walrus still associate humans with danger and will take flight at a moments notice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587422222-2DISG73AZA2YZJORK8QW/Wahlenbergfjord+Glacier+and+Zodiacs.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Zodiacs Under Iceberg A zodiac cruise along the tortured-looking glacier face at Wahlenbergfjord provides ample opportunities to marvel at the diversity of ice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538598141020-NZG262D2SHLHINBQB8IB/Polar+Bear+Reflection.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear Reflection An idyllic Svalbard scene. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587432862-LOPPMLQR8OCEE9QV10R3/Wide+Shot+of+Bear+Palanderbukta.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear — Palanderbukta, Svalbard The subtle color palette of Svalbard is a treat to behold regardless of the wildlife you encounter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790050047-34BU7O5JLL8JGPTL4IOY/Bear+Mom+Cubs+Resting.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear Mother & Cubs, Alkefjellet Svalbard This mother and her two cubs were encountered while they browsed on grass — yes, grass! — near one of the most impressive seabird nesting cliffs in the archipelago. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538598049639-SM2H8ASXY9GSDXJ5FQ9L/Bear+Mom+Cubs+Vertical.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear Mom & Cubs — Alkefjellet, Svalbard In a week’s time, seabird fledglings will leap from the ledges and crevices on which they hatched, taking their first flights. It’s a good time to be a hungry bear below these cliffs — many chicks will struggle to make it to the open ocean, and this mother bear will have the chance to feed her own offspring. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538598117813-GJYRQN452DMMID5WGRF9/Gazing+Up+at+Sky.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear — Bjorn Øya We encountered this bear scrounging around the barren coasts of Bjorn Øya. Clearly hungry, he made a few passes at the local tern colony before taking a rest. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587369921-PBH6H4V8NA7UJNRV0MVF/Fulmar+at+Jan+Mayen.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Northern Fulmar — Jan Mayen It’s difficult to go a day in the arctic without seeing droves of fulmar, one of the far north’s champion ocean travelers. Fulmar range across the entire Arctic Ocean, coming ashore on offshore islands only to breed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790722103-GB7F4XR6UPO16C1XWV9T/IMG_0540.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Crowberry, Lichen and Rocks A typical view of the arctic’s diminutive flora. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790726671-9SWOR4TV1PCBX9S84J98/IMG_0722.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Sydkap Scene At the northernmost stretches of Scoresby Sund lies the small hunting lodge of Sydkap. Wildflowers and dense carpets of ground-cover plants make this place a colorful respite from the monochromatic icy straits found elsewhere in the region. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790730212-BFL45S2N46TQ4EQ8DTAI/IMG_0754.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790733219-A9N3J01I37TN0PRLNYT2/IMG_0813.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Wildflowers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790736397-9IEY1PV00AW1QYP1UWZD/IMG_0825.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Sydkap https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790740906-HSGV2CUQCZKS7OYCIFM6/IMG_0863.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Tundra Meltstreams Melt streams from snowfields and glaciers persist late into the summer, becoming the arteries of nutrient flow across the arctic tundra. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587399863-QRDPHT5APJNI5AQ13QT7/Scoresby+Sund+Kittiwakes+on+Iceberg.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Kittiwakes on Iceberg A group of black-legged kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla) waits for a calving atop an iceberg in Scoresby Sund, Greenland. Calving events send underwater shockwaves that can stun small fish and crustaceans, making them easy pickings for seabirds such as the kittiwake. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790750962-ZQE4IU1QA5NF4WQ9J2EE/IMG_0893.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Rotten Sea Ice, Scoresby Sund https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538587403043-2BA7CLRQKJ45V38KSBZQ/Scoresby+Sund+Bear+Pack+Ice.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Polar Bear, Scoresby Sund We spotted this polar bear between bouts of dense fog, deep within the pack ice. After waiting still for almost exactly an hour, she tentatively came our way just close enough to provide some beautiful looks through the scope. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790748860-IJER1RMK6YQZD3JN02PB/IMG_1069.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Hornstrandir Waterfall https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790752951-7OTPH2PCI9A7DJ7P8ABD/IMG_1146.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Heath-Spotted Orchid — Hornstrandir, Iceland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790756584-4QO2DRBP3KNOS3ZNZOUJ/IMG_1156.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Buttercup Retreat — Hornstrandir, Iceland Small insects gather in the parabolic discs of these arctic buttercup, where they can keep warm and out of the wind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790757557-6OQ0CXBR3SK2DNFDDNAX/IMG_1175.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Hornstrandir, Iceland Scene https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790758804-BAJSL9N3901G5JTJCRNH/IMG_1257.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Waterfall — Hesteyri, Iceland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1538790764786-WJCQ05YY91LAD7DFS2CJ/IMG_1306.jpg Travel Log - High Arctic Journey — Svalbard, Greenland & Iceland - Hornstrandir National Park — Hesteyri, Iceland https://www.matturalist.com/blog/2019/1/17/a-ghostly-killer-whale-in-the-drake-passage monthly 0.5 2019-03-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1547762098864-734HU5EIKVQNEX2IU61R/DSC02243.jpg Travel Log - A Ghostly Killer Whale in the Drake Passage Two ‘Antarctic Type D’ killer whales.

Though they mostly feed on invertebrates found at sea, the giant petrel’s massive hooked bill allows it to rip into carrion, penguins, and even young seals. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551364711804-STB4TGPRJ2B4T08F6LSU/A52A+Iceberg.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Sunset Over A57a This gargantuan iceberg defies all sense of scale! At 11 x 5 miles long, A57a has been tracked by satellite since it calved off of its parent ice shelf in the Weddell Sea — 11 years ago! Tabular icebergs like this one can be incredibly long-lived, slowly breaking up over the course of decades. By all accounts, this one is fairly small. The largest iceberg ever was larger than the island of Jamaica, and calved off of the Ross Ice Shelf in 2000. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611252517-Z8M46AL85YHFWZN3YU8Q/Weddell+Seals+Telefon+Bay.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Deception Island — Weddell Seals Weddell seals always look lazy, especially when sprawled out on the ashen volcanic beaches of Deception Island. Despite their docile nature, weddell seals are champion divers and among the southernmost-venturing mammals on Earth! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551364093177-SGBP7G4L13ODB937MK3G/Sheathbills+on+Iceberg+Panorama.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Snowy Sheathbills on an Iceberg A flock of snowy sheathbills comes to rest on a tortured blue iceberg.

Tucked away against the granite hills of Booth Island, tiny patches of moss add a verdant flash of color to an otherwise bleak landscape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363069756-4TM7R80FPREZ9YLENGLJ/Iceberg+Errerra.jpg Antarctica 2019 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363109616-TK901NTXINBS3GDLNPPS/Three+Black-Browed+Albatross.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Black-Browed Albatross Drawn to our wake in a hunt for food, these impressive birds diligently scan the surface of the ocean. At this range, you can even see the nostril-like ‘tube’ on the beak, which these birds (and nearly all other seabirds) use to dispel excess salts they they ingest during a life at sea. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/5c6c52f2ee6eb0039fad3d08/5c6c531e15fcc062856513ce/1550603038644/ Antarctica 2019 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610976469-Z2JJV8ULLFA6VS2JOXJL/Gentoo+Walking+with+Pebble.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Geologist Gentoos The brush-tailed penguins are renowned for the neurotic dedication they have to constructing the best possible nest. That means finding the choicest pebbles and stones from the beach, or, if times are tough, pilfering from a neighbor! It’s unsurprising that this may create a bit of tension in the colony. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363108449-7243JG84GD4FBDAGERYX/Returning+Home+Shag+Rocks.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Returning Home — Shag Rocks This forlorn group of islands is ‘Shag Rocks’, appropriately named for the hundreds of blue-eyed shags that nest here. Here, these birds aggressively defend their minuscule territories, doing what they can to raise their chicks among the near-constant wind and sea spray. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363044038-B229GI6EIMQXKBXDIKN1/Blue-Eyed+Shag+Flight.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Blue-Eyed Shag It didn’t take much creativity to name this bird, but it takes a lot of guts to live its life: this particular bird nests on Shag Rocks, a waveswept group of ledges that rises abruptly out of the middle of the Southern Ocean. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610866283-UE0CIEV7SON7SO98VUVZ/Chinstrap+Ecstatic+Call.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Chinstrap Penguins — Ecstatic Display Some scientist, at some point, coined the term ‘ecstatic display’ to describe the eruptive and spontaneous calls of certain penguin species. We’re still not entirely sure why they do it, but I imagine it helps these birds keep their finger (or, flipper, I guess) on the pulse of the colony. Often, the whole hillside will join in a chorus; this time, it was a solo performance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610919689-3FN899TJ6SZYW3D5DXBM/Cuverville+Iceberg+2.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Errerra Iceberg Among the many fjords and inlets of the Antarctic Peninsula, a small strait known as the Errerra Channel stands out as particularly scenic. The small sandbar at its entrance traps and grounds passing icebergs, yet the water remains deep enough to navigate, carefully, by zodiac. It’s one of the Antarctic’s finest sculpture gardens, constantly changing with the currents and tides, and the site of many of my favorite iceberg photos. This isn’t a great picture, but I love this place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363050647-JM2ZPEDTC0GT9ESC0MOO/Cape+and+Antarctic+Petrels.jpg Antarctica 2019 - In the Slipstream — Petrels Cape Petrels — and an Antarctic petrel in the upper left — sail along in our wake en route to Antarctica. These two species may look very similar, but live very different lives; Antarctic petrels seem to prefer closer proximity to ice, while cape petrels enjoy the open ocean. It’s cultural differences like these that, over time, can sometimes lead to speciation! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611125798-QYO0QR0FX2OIBSO2V26X/Side-Fluke+and+Albatross.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Whale Tail is a Habitat The graceful tail of a humpback whale makes for more than just a nice picture — it’s the chief propulsory force for these 40+ ton animals, specially engineered to push them through the water. For a barnacle, there could be no better place to live; these tiny crustaceans will spend the adult phase of their life glued to a host, where they’ll filter food from passing seawater! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610890581-JC16BBDIKB6WLLK1HI3D/Crabeater+Seal+Salpetriere.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Crabeater Seal on Ice In the early 1900s, French explorer Jean-Baptiste Charcot became one of the first humans to spend a winter in Antarctica, tucked against the rocks in a small bay on Booth Island. “Port Charcot” is now a popular stop for visitors in the region, and also a fantastic place to spot wildlife! Shifting currents funnel nutrients through a maze of ledges and rocks, providing the perfect habitat for wildlife like this crabeater seal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610939958-C1S0QN1HSG968JPVJZZX/Cuverville+Iceberg.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Iceberg Reflections I find the patterns and reflections of these icebergs fascinating! With some experience, you can gain some insight into lives that these frozen leviathans have had. The jagged, blue surface hints at a recent calving, and old waterlines are clearly visible on the lower right side (one almost parallel to the water, the other at nearly 45°) — relics from times when the iceberg was larger and its weight distributed differently. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610834289-QNL4BPBU9BGC618P9B55/Adelies+Walking+in+Snow.jpg Antarctica 2019 - March of the Adelie Sleet, wind or snow, these penguins have a job to do — caring for their needy chicks! These adélies have had a long season, beginning at the first sign of the spring snowmelt and lasting until the bitter hints of winter wind. By now, their chicks are large and hungry, and both parents must make multiple food runs a day to keep their young healthy and growing. No wonder these birds look so tired! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551362922314-BKBCCNVRZWV20CFLDO3R/Marr+de+Piedmont+Glacier+Brash.jpeg Antarctica 2019 - Brash Ice and the Piedmont Glacier The Marr de Piedmont glacier in its brooding glory. This is a special site; the US Antarctic Program has been monitoring the movements of this glacier for decades. The place where I took this photo (from my zodiac) was covered by ice only 30 years ago. Now, fields of shattered brash ice drift silently by, punctuated only by an occasional thunderous groaning as the Piedmont slowly recedes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363907040-YVEZVT3D5RPPJO4N0VX3/King+Penguin+Group+Salisbury+Plain.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Salisbury Kings King penguins hold court against the brooding skies of South Georgia. Weather in this region is extreme: a few minutes after this photo was taken, torrential rains and sweeping 40kt winds began to wrack the beach, forcing us to find a new landing. These were all fairly mild conditions for these penguins— they’ll brave the ferocious Antarctic winter every year, when pounding surf and hurricane-force winds will drive nearly all human life to warmer climes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611088553-YZ383JLJWB8LH6YCTNSH/Neko+Harbor+Slide+Abstract.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Continental Hike at Neko Harbor This snowfield is a popular hiking spot on the Antarctic mainland. The dramatic trudge up through the snow provides some stunning scenery, but more importantly, it’s an opportunity to slide down the face of the mountain! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363072044-4WFON1MXVOSRUYT8MPDW/King+Pair+Salisbury.jpg Antarctica 2019 - King Penguin Pair Life is a constant coming-and-going of penguins on the beach near Salisbury Plain, but sometimes there’s a moment to stop and inspect the newcomers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610966959-EX224L1X734014EM7EJK/Giant+Petrel+Takeoff.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Southern Giant Petrel A Southern Giant Petrel takes to the skies near Penguin Island, Antarctica. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550780973411-ZZTNKI03MBCKJMOI2RG1/Sunset+Near+Trinity+Island+Panorama.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Trinity Island Sunset The late night sun douses Trinity Island in a wash of gold light. At these high latitudes (65°S), vibrant sunsets can go on for hours, an effect fondly referred to as ‘simmer dim’ by the sailors of old. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550610794345-D45DZ0BDAH32QPYOQM90/Aandvord+Bay+Iceberg.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Aandvord Bay Ice Floe This rogue chunk of ice, once part of a massive glacier, now slowly waits out its days in the calm waters of Aandvord Bay. The parallel striations on its surface are known as ‘runnels’ — they formed long ago, when this ice was still submerged, and escaping bubbles of air ran up its sides. Soon, this tiny piece of frozen history will be lost to the ages. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363057974-WOYFXC6SK4QUIBS3PXVD/Cute+Chick+Neko+Harbor.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Floppy Gentoo Chick An inside look into the struggles and triumphs of a gentoo colony. Both mom and dad will dedicate two months of the summer to keeping their hungry chicks warm and well-fed, before the young birds must endure the oncoming winter on their own. A bib of reddish krill oil explains why this youngster is so happy… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611179062-IPI2TLZUVENHDX1P490I/Triumphant+Chinstrap+Cropped.jpg Antarctica 2019 - The King of Half-Moon — Chinstrap Penguins High and mighty, the pugnacious chinstrap penguins at Half Moon Island are some of the most-photographed on Earth. You'd think they'd clean up a bit, but hungry chicks demand a daily supply of regurgitated krill. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611126196-2W4QCP7D6B948BMIH5FS/Skua+Colorful+Rocks.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Skua & Lichens Vibrant lichens cling to patches of bare rock along the Antarctic peninsula, giving this cliff a brilliant wash of color that this skua seems to admire! Lichens are super weird beings; they're a group of colorless fungi that have learned how to 'farm' colonies of brightly-colored bacteria. Hardy enough to survive the most extreme winters, lichens have been found as far South as there is bare rock for them to colonize. While there are dozens of species of lichen in Antarctica, there are only two flowering plants. One is in this picture! Can you find it? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611137481-B8TWSFM8PS0HSEVMREUY/SkuaFlying.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Diving Skua These drab-looking birds are some of my favorite to watch — cunning hunters and surprisingly caring parents, the skua is nature’s modern iteration of the Velociraptor. Pay close enough attention and you’ll almost always find one keeping an eye on you — I once took a nap on the beach and awoke to one tugging at my finger! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611193327-T30TK1Y197A8X4OOF6ZW/Sleepy+Leopard+Seal.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Naptime — Leopard Seal On a day as nice as this, it's tempting to think that this apex predator is basking in the sun for warmth. In reality, a thick layer of blubber keeps these animals nice and toasty — this one could actually be trying to cool off after a morning on the hunt! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551364696813-72QV6C8HAGI4UV3W4VLK/Aitcho+Gentoos.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Barrientos Island Scene Among the most stunning geologic features in the Antarctic are the towering basalt columns that line the approach to the South Shetland Islands. Tucked away in the more protected bays are some of the Antarctic’s northernmost penguin colonies. We passed by Barrientos Island on a particularly nice day, and decided it was worth a visit! The penguins don’t seem to appreciate the good view. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1551363048640-QLDCW291NSPMCQ69VD7K/Banking+Wandering+Albatross.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Wandering Albatross There are few birds steeped in as much lore as seabirds, and king amongst them all is Diomedea exulans — the great Wandering Albatross. With an impressive wingspan reaching 11 feet, these birds soar over the waves with ease, capable of traveling hundreds of miles without a single flap of their wings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1550611104328-ZIHL7BZCUY3L9DK5T583/Pink+Glow+Glacier.jpg Antarctica 2019 - Peach Skies — Dallman Bay The late summer sun bids us farewell in an impressive display of ‘Simmer Dim’ along the coasts of Dallman Bay, our last night of the season. https://www.matturalist.com/about-matt-messina daily 0.75 2023-02-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1596487040457-YSDD5L6SOB1USI52VHEB/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-08-03%2Bat%2B1.36.29%2BPM.jpg ABOUT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1596487331768-F7409M3OO2ERRPMAM4HY/Screen+Shot+2020-08-03+at+1.41.33+PM.png ABOUT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1530393724200-GLKUHRJ0906AO55344H3/Matt-Toned.jpg ABOUT Adding the finishing touches to a huge pair of sperm whale jaws for a museum display. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1530278304346-11OKTZ0FH8L6RZQ7BHX6/DSC_0454.JPG ABOUT https://www.matturalist.com/nautical-charts daily 0.75 2018-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab1a7cc96d455163f5eb327/1522287212680-7G8ATGM9HUHUMN1DJGT8/Matts+Antartica+Painting+Chart+copy.jpeg Nautical Charts - Antarctic Peninsula Chart - SOLD This full-size, 36”x57” illustrated navigational chart of the Antarctic peninsula includes two ‘Type B’ killer whales, a gentoo penguin, an iceberg and three cape petrels.
