Your photos of ALASKAN BALD EAGLEAS are superb. I look at google maps about Homer, AK from Anchorage thru road, 4 plus hours plus few hotels are there so I am thinking about it 4 to 6 years from now, I prefer by myself. and Homer, Ak is easy access to get there than Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve, Haines, AK, great places but not so great expenses, problem is mere one hotel, where are vehicle rental???, gas stations, restaurants, NOT EASY but Homer is better, McDonalds, Subway, some fine restaurants. Not bad. Alaska is super HUGE. several times bigger than my home state of Ohio.

Not for me. I am staying with my Nikon D500/MB-D17, D850/MB-D18 and ED-IF 300MM F/2.8Dafs II, with either one, TC14EII, TC17E II or TC20EIII, mount on my either one Induro AT313 or Benro TMA48CXL tripod with Really Right Stuff BH-55 ballhead along with my camo daypack, come with roast beef sandwich, chocolate chip cookies and two bottles of Pure Life water, along with deer calls and stuffs.
