Eagles, Bears & Salmon...oh my!

Bear Count = 3

Bald Eagle Count = 2

Seal Count = 2

Three Kodiak bears!  A mama and two cubs. We saw them just before dusk as they were fishing for salmon in a river by the road. Very cool. Even cooler, we started our own bear jam (pictures of bears and bear jam below). Previous visitors to Yellowstone will appreciate this. 

Also spotted today were two Bald Eagles, one of which was easily the largest Bald Eagle I've ever seen.  And two seals out fishing for salmon in the ocean at the mouth of a river. 

We planned on hiking another peak but the island was pretty much fogged in all day, and after multiple warnings from locals of "don't ever hike in the fog", we decided to postpone that until later this week.  

Tom is heading out to fish for halibut and salmon tomorrow with Robin. I may get a trail run in and some exploring around town while he's filling our cooler with fish to take home!  We also have a dinner cruise tomorrow night on the Galley Gourmet ( http://www.kodiak-alaska-dinner-cruises.com/kodiak-dinner-brunch.html ).
