These are videos recorded at the same time as the images in Growing up in Alaska were taken. You can watch the action as the parents are feeding the chick and as he learns to fly.
Preening, fly by feeding, a lot more preening, another fly by, nap time, swimming, wing stretch on the rock, potty break, fly by feeding, feeling ignored, another fly by, more napping, a fly by, potty break, wing flapping, more standing on rock and napping.
Napping in the wind.
Fish dinner.
Bath time, spiny fish for lunch but not for chick, adults on rocks, chick gets a drink and calls for food.
Chasing away a Canada Goose while chick is napping, preening.
Where's the water, a bath, a fish, and flying lessons.
Feed me, a nap, flying lessons, and a bug.
Just want to deliver this bug.
Meeting the big world, mouse over to see reaction.
Nothing like a good fish dinner.
Baby Arctic Terns are underneath.
Trying to hover over my nest.
Windy Day Bathing.
Oh, those itchy spots.
Enjoying the sun on a windy day.
Just a fish tail still to swallow.
These wings strokes brought me from Antarctica to Alaska.
