Resurrection Bay

After a cold, rainy night at Portage Glacier, we headed to Seward on the Kenai Peninsula. Despite the light, steady rain, we decided to take the boat trip out on Resurrection Bay. It was great for wildlife viewing even though the snow covered peaks were in the clouds. This rock is covered with Black-legged Kittiwakes with Steller sea lions to the right.

We were in awe of the goats on the steep cliffs, females coming down low to soon 'drop' their kids. We saw Dall porpoises, a humpbacked whale, harbor seals and sea otters as well.
