Terry and I spent the hot months of August and September on a cruise around Iceland and the tip of Greenland.
Cruising the North Atlantic, fjords and coastal fishing villages provided opportunity to see many sea and water birds and a few land birds inhabiting the cold climate of a scenic and awesome environment.
During early June, Terry and I drove the Teton National Park and service roads of the surrounding National Forests viewing wildlife. The mountains, hills and valleys were velvet green and meadows were carpeted in a profusion of wildflowers resulting from rain for the first five days of our tour. Bird breeding season offered many opportunities to view and photograph a diverse species birds up close.
