Five birds were spotted in camp in the morning. They were definitely not where they needed to be. There were trying to get warm but were also skiterish when people came by, so I have yet to get a picture. After talking with Kathy, our camp manager, there have been a variety of species in past years that have found their way to Summit, such as sea gulls, a flock of geese, gyrefalcon, and even an arctic fox. None of them can make a ‘living’ here. They are definitely out of their element. Sara Boaz, one of the camp employees, is taking care of the only one red poll that has so far survived. She hopes that it will survive until the next Hercules comes to load up gear and people…and bird and take it to Kangerlussuag.
