A bald eagle perched atop one of many tidewater glaciers within striking distance of the Juneau Harbor.
Looking strikingly similar to a healthy coho salmon, this iceberg casually swam its way past us en route to bigger waters.
International travel without a passport: Cessna-cruising the Alaska-BC border and the Juneau Icefield after Sunday breakfast.
Thanks to the difficult-to-quantify amounts of nearby ice, the Tongass remains lush, wet, and mild year round, providing rich waters for feasting, as demonstrated by this crew of bald eagles loitering on the reef.
Freedom taking a dip: this eagle must have snatched a fish too heavy to carry in flight. In order to cash in on the calories, this eagle had to swim a few hundred yards to the nearest reef to open up its talons for the fishy prize.
