For today's #Wildlife post, here's a Polar Bear mom and cub resting on a patch of snow. We watched them swim to this island in the #Svalbard Archipelago and then climb up onto the island. Photo is a little fuzzy because it is a high zoom. #Nature #WildlifePhotography #Norway #ArcticTravel

#EgretsAndHerons is the theme for today's #BirdOfTheDay. Here's a Great White Egret and an African Sacred Ibis along the Zambezi River in #Zambia. #birds #BirdPhotography #Africa

I rarely post two #BirdOfTheDay photos, but couldn't resist with today's theme of #YourChoice. With the utmost respect and credit to Charles Schulz, here is a White-hooded vulture, 'waiting patiently for a victim' in #Zimbabwe. #bird #BirdPhotography #Africa

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #YourChoice. I've been waiting for a BOTD category of #BirdOnAHippo, but it never came 😂. So, I'll use this opportunity to post an African Jacana on the back of a Hippo, along with two Red-billed Oxpeckers, in the background. #birds #BirdPhotography #Africa #Botswana

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #MultiColor. To that end, here's a Red Phalarope in breeding plumage. Photo taken in the Svalbard Archipelago on July 20 of this year. #bird #BirdPhotography #Svalbard #Spitsbergen #Norway

Welcome to #WaterfallWednesday. This ice waterfall is on Kvitoya Island (extreme eastern edge of the Svalbard Archipelago). The island is almost entirely ice cap, with steep ice cliffs all around. #Svalbard #Spitsbergen #Norway

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #EmeraldBackdrop. It can be challenging to find such a backdrop in the land of rock and ice, but here is a Parasitic Jaeger (Stercorarius parasiticus), also known as the Arctic Skua in Europe. Taken in northern Svalbard on July 20 of this year. #birds #BirdPhotography

Greetings. Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Grey, any bird with grey in its plumage. Here is a Barnacle goose and gosling from Longyearbyen, Norway. Hard to tell if the gosling is in focus because they are so fluffy. #Svalbard #Norway #birds #BirdPhotography #WildlifePhotography

Sunday is #Stunday. I just returned from a complete circumnavigation of the Svalbard archipelago with almost 2K photos. Here is one that qualifies as 'stunning'. We actually did our polar plunge in this fjord and yes, it WAS COLD! Open the photo for panorama effect. #Svalbard #Norway

It's #StunDay and I have to go back to the sunset photos that I recently took at Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia. Probably the most stunning sunset I've ever photographed. I hope you enjoy it. #Sunset #Bolivia #SalardeUyuni
