So we're going to move down onto the Alaska peninsula today, down where the walruses hang out. Look at them in that cave, isn't that neat? Yeah, that's great. It must be at least a couple hundred of them on shore there and you can see down in the water, see how that real light color they're taking on in that cold water. Yeah, I noticed there are different colors out there in the water, and then they come up on land they seem to be darker. Right? That cold water kind of changes the color and then they darken back up again. What a spectacular view. These are some big, old bears. It's a pretty neat place to get this huge amount of sockeye salmon and all these bears gathered here to fish them as they're moving through the river. I love that flashing and running through the gravel there, and the rocks. And then all of a sudden hit more into a splash That's a big, old boy. And remember, it's not just about a photograph.
