First IceUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147283183 File Size: 17368 Comments: 0 / Views: 429 Description: What's the difference between sea ice and an iceberg? This is a chunk of sea ice that resembles an iceberg. Icebergs are usually chunks of ice that fall off a glacier into the ocean. Sea ice forms directly in the ocean. In this picture, you can really see what the saying about the "tip of the iceberg" really means. The white part is what is above water and you can see that there is so much more of it below the water, the light blue parts. | |||||
Basket StarsUploaded by: Patricia_Janes On: 1147282225 File Size: 49613 Comments: 0 / Views: 477 Description: Basket stars are a type of brittle star. They are related to sea stars, with which you might be more familiar. Basket stars eat detritus, or matter that is formed when plants and animals decay. | |||||
Dall's PorpoiseUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147196587 File Size: 5399 Comments: 0 / Views: 518 Description: This is a picture of a Dall’s porpoise (Phocoenoides dalli). One of them briefly jumped out of the water so we could see its shape and coloring to make a positive identification. For the most part, we only saw their “blows” (water they blow out of their blowholes).

World War II BunkerUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147195547 File Size: 63931 Comments: 0 / Views: 496 Description: This is the entrance to the bunker at the WWII memorial. Can you imagine hiding in there with soldiers while being bombed by the enemy? There are so many of them all around the community. |
Strange LineUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147195391 File Size: 16592 Comments: 0 / Views: 440 Description: There is a strange line on the side of one of the smaller mountains in Dutch Harbor. I asked a few people and no one seemed to know where it came from. I heard everything from hiking trails to a trench for a pipe. Can you trace the line across the side of the small mountain? | ||||
Russian ParsonageUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147195333 File Size: 48681 Comments: 0 / Views: 458 Description: This is the parsonage for the Russian Cathedral. It has not been restored like the church has, but it seems like I can still envision it in its former glory. Do you know what a parsonage is for? |
Eagles DumpUploaded by: Samantha_Dassler_Barlow On: 1147195283 File Size: 58845 Comments: 0 / Views: 442 Description: Bald Eagles are a common site here in Dutch Harbor. They blend well with the cliff. How many can you count? We have seen them frequently on fences and posts, wherever they can perch - all around the community. | ||||
