Back to the blog after a wet weekend in Haines, Alaska. This is one of the best time of the year to watch bald eagles in the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve, along the Chilkat River. I just created a new gallery about the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve and I hope to continue to update it in the next few weeks.
