Alaska Adventures

My mom came up to visit this weekend, to see me play in the ASO concert.  She doesn't leave until early Wednesday, so we spent a lot of time outside seeing the sights.  Today we were at ERNC again.  I love the way the mountains reflect in the water.
This female Hairy Woodpecker was hanging out right in front of us on the trail.  There were actually a few.  I was surprised at how big these birds are!
About halfway along the Loop, we found this moose in the woods.  She just stared at us and did not move at all, not even when we started walking again.  Weird.
This swan is actually one of the Potter's Marsh swans we saw yesterday, but there's one at ERNC, too!
Later in the day we drove down the Seward Highway to sheep mountain.  There were two yearling Dall Sheep, one napping and this one that was hopping around a bit.
