Photo by @RalphLeeHopkins Summer wildlife spectacle in Svalbard. The bird cliffs at #CapeFanshawe on Spitsbergen, viewed from water level with #glaciers in the background. You can not imagine what over 100,000 nesting sea birds sound like, and smell like. The productive arctic waters along towering cliffs support a large seasonal population of thick-billed murres.
