That could well be, Japako ... but, I did get that right from the horse's mouth - someone who actually lives there ... did you read the rest of the quote?

In case you missed it, here:

The farthest north Eskimos are known as the Inupiat (or Inupiaq, if you will) further south they are known as the Yupik, (or Yup’ik)
The Aleuts are actually of unknown certain origin, and live on the Aleutian Peninsula and Aleutian Islands. Whatever they were originally, there was extensive contact between them and the Russians, beginning in either the late 1600’s or early 1700’s. As a result, many Aleuts have Russian names. In South Central Alaska, where we live, there are a couple different Alaska Native tribes. Locally, there is the Knik tribe, and on the Kenai Peninsula there is the Kenai Tribe, or Ke’inai (or something like that) who are related to the Aleuts. The Knik tribe, and the Eklutna Tribe are more closely related to or a part of the Athabaskan Indian Nation.

The Eskimo people seem to be generally shorter with wider, more dished faces and oriental-looking eyes, somewhat resembling the Mongolian people. They theorize that they migrated here from Asia when there was a landbridge between Alaska and Siberia, and that the Diomede Islands are likely that last vestiges of that land bridge. The rest has disappeared under the Bering Sea. The Aleuts seem to have a lot of White influence, so more closely resemble caucasians, although that’s not 100% across the board. The Athabaskan people are taller and more straight-legged,while the Eskimo people have tendency toward bowleggedness. The Athabaskans also have a narrower, longer face, and resemble many of the native American Indians. The Knik and Eklutna people don’t really look any others, particularly, but more like the Athabaskans. I think there may be a lot of mixed blood there. Just so you know, all of this doesn’t include the native people of Southeast Alaska, the Tlingets and the Haida’s, and there’s one other. If I recall correctly, the Tlingets (pronounced klinket) have been fisherman and the Haidas have been more warlike, but also fisherman. I believe they are related to the coastal tribes of British Columbia, Washington and Oregon.

Well, Mike ... there are NO Inuits in Alaska - Greg (WingPilot) - who I think you've mixed me up with - Gawd knows why - could tell you that.

Inuits live along the northern frontier of the Northwest Territory, Nunavut (their home base) and western Labrador ....

Greg would tell you this - The farthest north Eskimos are known as the Inupiat (or Inupiaq, if you will) further south they are known as the Yupik, (or Yup’ik) The Aleuts are actually of unknown certain origin, and live on the Aleutian Peninsula and Aleutian Islands.

The Knik tribe, and the Eklutna Tribe are more closely related to, or a part of - the Athabaskan Indian Nation.

Those were really hard. They are not Photoshop though. The area has a mix of water and grass and I would time my shots (as best I could) to have as much grass and as little water as possible in the shot. The grass was relatively far away and the terns were only like 25 ~40 feet away, so the grass became a nice blur - but there wasn't much of it so I had a VERY tiny "zone" where I could capture images like this.

As an aside, that nice blur is one of the reasons I like to shoot fast primes over slower zooms. The only problem is that with the birds at such close range with a 600 F 4 set to F4 there is VERY little depth of filed, so getting the eye perfectly sharp is tricky. I had quite a few shots that were tack sharp somewhere on the bird, but not the eye. In a scenario like this, it's impossible to get ever shot perfect - but I had enough good ones (those three are just the tip of the iceberg) that I was completely happy.
