    Yeah, there's not as much salmon and no halibut, but there's a heck of a lot of Grayling. And moose.

    and it seems like every year more caribou make it down to Fairbanks than the year before. They still hadn't figured out why back in '86......used to be tons of ptarmigan there just south of you on the flats.....mac (actually, come to think about it, that area may already be enveloped by Fairbanks. It was growin' pretty fast back then......we used to joke about tanana mosquitoes in that area being big enough to wear snowshoes..,...,.mac

    I was awakened by geese flying south yesterday at 5:15 AM.

    Summer's ending here. Welcome to Autumn

    Don't know if you got to see it, or if you will be able to tonight, but there should be a pretty healthy Aurora going on right now.
    I don't mind being called far right.
    I have been right so far.

    i haven't seen any geese yet but did see a couple of small flocks of ducks (one of 'em sounded like they may have been green winged teal) and a few monarchs. back in the day this would have been a sure and certain harbinger of an early, long, and hard winter for the "top tiers" states.....mac

    We've had three 'easy' winters in a row...

    I don't think this one will be as easy. All the berries played out early as did the fireweed.

    There is, again, a pretty healthy magnetic storm going on.
    Hope you get a good light show.
