Humpback whale heaven

By Freelance Chinese Translator Li – English to Chinese translation services - based in China.

Frederick（弗雷德里克）Sound, just a few hours from Petersburg（彼得斯堡）, is humpback（驼背）whale heaven. Join us as we learn about these giant creatures with special insights from our guide, whale photographer Jim Nahmens.

Humpback whales congregate（聚集）here to feed on massive schools of fish and krill. With some luck, we may see these endangered giants as they use bubble nets（泡泡网） to execute their cooperative feeding attacks. Our guide will introduce you to the world of the humpback whale - its life cycle, anatomy（解剖）, behaviors, migration（迁移）, feeding strategies and current research. He will also share the secrets of getting great whale photos.

 Although whales are the focus of this trip, we will also hike in vast rain forests, stroll on secluded beaches, and visit spectacular bays, using both skiffs（小艇）and kayaks（单人划子）. We’ll keep our eyes out for other wildlife too-killer whales, seals, porpoises, bears, bald eagles and other birds. And we’ll visit a raucous（沙哑的）Steller sea lion haul out and salmon spawning streams. Along the way, our guide will introduce you to Alaska’s natural history, geology, native culture, flora（植物群）and fauna（动物群）.

 Join us for this incredible journey. Each day is a new adventure with a backdrop（背景） of beautiful forested islands and snow-capped peaks. This all inclusive excursion includes three gourmet meals per day, cozy accommodations（住处）, hot showers, all beverages including select wines with dinner, sea kayaks, skiffs, and the fun-loving company of our guide who is simply nuts about humpback whales and Alaska.
