Sorry for the lack of blog posts the past few days, I’ve been pretty busy now that nest searching started. I will do a separate post later on what exactly we are doing. I just thought I’d post a few pictures before you think a Polar Bear got me or something…

Great Shots Ethan!
One day I'll get to see a Phalarope...
Thanks guys!
Jen - what's sleep?
Hey Ethan,
Wow, fabulous photos! One of my favorite things on my visits to Barrow was getting to see all those phalaropes in the rich colors of breeding plumage. But I never got photos as good as yours.
What a great opportunity you've got to learn about the nesting behavior of all these birds. Keep up the good work and keep us posted on how it's going!
