On the last morning of our Arctic trip we had a few hours to spend in Longyearbyen before our departure. We went for a walk along the shore and came across these Arctic Terns. They were extremely protective, repeatedly dive-bombing me as I photographed them! / / (Spitzbergen – Scandinavian Arctic) / / >< / / / / / /
It was a nice experience to spend one hour with these little-known Golden Monkeys which are listed as “endangered” and are only found in the Virunga Conservation Area in Rwanda. / / They share the lofty mountain forests with their great ape relatives, the Gorillas, and face some of the same threats. These include snares set for small antelopes, human encroachment, and people entering their habitat to collect wood. / / (Virunga volcanoes – Rwanda) / / >< / / / / / / / / /

Gentoo Penguin Chick / / (Antarctic Peninsula) / / Melting sea ice and overfishing have triggered a dangerously rapid decline in penguin populations on the Antarctic peninsula – a direct result of global warming, warns a new report from the WWF.

Sacred Ground / On the beautiful and remote Hāna coast, along the far eastern shores of the Hawaiian island of Maui is one of the largest, untamed native Mahama Lauhala (Pandanus) forests on the islands. This is the pa’ala, the shoreline, called Honomaele. This is a deeply sacred and very beautiful place.
