Photos of migrating birds and waterfowl are all the rage in Alaska these weeks as hundreds of thousands return to nest. My Facebook feed is filled with photos of beautiful photos taken by people all around Alaska.
IF you'd like to see some of them, check the Facebook group called Birds of Alaska.
My litter clean up brought me to the edge of Summit Lake this afternoon, where I was able to get a few shots of a pair of American Wigeons before the clouds obscured the sunlight.
The rest of the story is that I knelt on the INSIDE of the highway guard rail and leaned my camera with its long lens on a guard rail post to steady the camera, as traffic zipped past.
