For the second time this year, I’ve found myself visiting Haines, Alaska. Jacqui, my girlfriend, has been nursing in Whitehorse, and on a visit we took a trip out to Haines. At this time of year the Chum and Coho Salmon are running, and between 3000 and 4000 bald eagles migrate to Haines’ Chilkat River to feast. We counted almost 100 eagles in one spot within easy view.
