This is a follow up to the landscapes from last week. We spent 6 days in Haines and two days in Juneau. There are plenty of eagles in both places and we always love Juneau at the Mendenhal Glacier because the eagles there are pretty well used to humans.

Good work, Jim! Were they still on most of the lamp posts on the way out to Mendenhall Glacier?

Yes they were, but the Coho run was late and that's why some of these shots were perched eagles above the creek you cross just before the parking lot. Park Ranger tipped us off.
