St. Paul Island (The Pribilofs)

Here's a few pictures from St. Paul Island, I place I visited while in the Bering Sea on a couple of occasions. The entire island has about 300 people on it, some amazing fur seals and (my favorite) ... puffins!



I was able to climb a sea stack and get above this little horned puffin. I love puffins

An arctic fox


Just because I'm a licensed teacher now, here's the local school district office. It was a strange island. The locals invited us to the bar (declined, as the boat was leaving) which shares the same building as the police station and the jail, which is a pretty logical pairing if you think about it.

Cool puffin! And fox!

My mom likes those two funny things sharing a building.
