Alaska is a unique place in that it provides habitat for many migratory birds that choose its food rich land to raise their young. Owls, swans, cranes, songbirds, and many more arrive in spring and after a summer of sunlight and successful parenting, head south for warmer weather in the autumn. All images are available to license as stock photography and may be purchased as art decor prints for home or office. More information about some of the species of birds in Alaska can be found at the respective links: Spruce grouse, loons, puffins, bald eagles, willow ptarmigan.
