Today, in honor of my son Jack’s last day of fourth grade, churchillpolarbears.org is having fan photo Friday! We encourage you to submit any of your favorite Churchill or Arctic photographs to our Churchill Polar Bears Facebook page and they will be published in our blog at churchillpolarbears.org.

Churchill Sunday Photos – Air, Land and Sea

I thought it would be fun to post three photos from Churchill…one wildlife image from air, land and sea. Churchill’s diversity is immense from season to season and you quite honestly never know what you will experience from trip to trip. It’s always an amazing wildlife adventure in Churchill’s untamed frontier!

Churchill Photos of the Week

These Churchill Photos of the week are by Rhonda Reid and one by Stephanie Fernandez. Over 200 species of migrating birds come to Churchill during this time to take advantage of the bountiful feeding grounds. Only about 10 overwinter in Churchill. Look for postings from our local photographers and Churchill Arctic summer guides….much more to come!
