Alaska is home to over 10 species of owls.
Great Horned, Boreal, Northern Saw-whet, Northern Hawk, and Great Gray to name a few observed here in south central Alaska. Some of the largest owls, the Great Gray Owl and the Snowy Owl, are two feet in length, and can detect rodents under a few feet of snow. These are a few ‘snow angel’ markings from hunting owls here in Willow Alaska. During the Midnight Sun nocturnal owls adapt to the near-constant daylight of summer by hunting during twilight and some will hunt during day time hours.

Meet the DINEEGA in Athabaskan or moose, with their remarkable adaptations for winter survival. Their hollow hair keeps them warm, and they browse on twigs from willow, birch, and aspen trees. Deep snow makes life challenging, requiring more energy to move around and find food while avoiding predators. Although their winter diet is less nutritious, they make up for it by eating more. We've enjoyed watching healthy moose this winter and look forward to seeing them again near the river this summer.

Moose tracks are 4-7 inches long have 2 hooved toes and 2 dewclaws. The hooves grow continuously throughout an animals life. Usually solitary creatures, the cows are rearing their young at this time and we will see them traveling together. 🫎 Come join us on a trip to search out tracks on one of the many gravel bars along Willow Creek.

The North American porcupine is one of the largest rodents in Alaska, second only to the beaver

A single porcupine can have up to 30,000 quills covering its body.

The inner bark of spruce, birch, hemlock and spruce needles are the major winter foods for porcupines in Alaska. In spring and summer, they eat buds and young green leaves of birch, aspen, cottonwood, and willow until the tannin levels build too high to tolerate.

Porcupines also feed on shed antlers and the bones of dead animals to obtain sodium and calcium.

Unlike most porcupines who are solitary creatures, Alaskan porcupines during exceptionally harsh winters might huddle together for warmth in dens like hollow logs or rock crevices. This is a rare behavior for the species, showcasing their ability to adapt to extreme conditions.

We have been running the river the last few weeks getting ready for our season. Water was clear today and we enjoyed some bird watching along our relaxing float. Our temperature today was close to 60°F and was a perfect Sunday for some Vitamin D! Max enjoyed his front row seat for the best view of all the ducks 🦆
