Day 245: Homer, part 2

A five photo panorama of the shore while leaving Homer. Alaska has…Hoodoos? We aren’t sure what this boat was doing…we thought it was a couple of passengers that had missed the ship, but they didn’t let them on, at least that we saw… Common Loons. Another Otter! A drilling rig, sitting in a bay. A […]

A Tuffed Puffin. Two Puffins: Tuffed or Horned… Three Tuffed Puffins! A bunch of Common Murres… Led by…a Puffin.  If you […]
