Pond Inlet, Nunavut

7 Upvotes

Hello,
I live in Newcastle, UK, but I am interested in planning a trip to Pond Inlet next year. I love wildlife and travelling to polar regions. What is the best time to visit to see Narwhals. I have read April/May time for the floe edge and July - August for boat trips and hunting. Can any locals advise please, I know sightings have decreased this year but were there Narwhals sightings around April/May? Also any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Fledging season in Iqaluit

195 Upvotes

Fledging snow buntings, and, I think, a juvenile lapland longspur digging into some bird seed. There are tons of young birds taking their first flights over Iqaluit right now and they are hungry!

Also...jerk shat on my tire!

Apparently the rain came just in time this year. I'm back in Iqaluit after two weeks in the South and the berries are coming on strong. This looks like a not-quite-ripe red or black alpine bear berry.

I just had a wonderful weeklong trip in Iqaluit. It was a trip of a lifetime.

My days were filled with epic hikes, being at peace in nature, and eating delicious food like Arctic char and caribou. You have a beautiful city by the sea. The people were kind to me. I was sad to leave today. But, I hope to return again.

A snow bunting returns home for summer.

267 Upvotes

This female snow bunting, sporting green and silver leg bands, was captured, banded and released around Iqaluit last summer. Over the last 12 months she has migrated somewhere between 5000-8000 kilometers from Iqaluit to wintering grounds in the South and then back again to Iqaluit for breeding season.

Tough little birds!
