Each summer, the administration of the Aleutian region runs an ethno-ecological camp called Camp Aglakh for youth aged 12 to 17 on the Commander Islands. During this inspiring camp students typically travel over 120km on foot, learning about the wildlife and history of Bering Island en route. Natalia Formina was a camp leader from 2010-2016, and led the mini-camp in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandamic. Natalia shares this powerpoint presentation with us. These images really capture the beauty of the Commander Islands, and reflect the unique and rich experience that camp provides.
Thank you Natalia.
This beautiful dance is performed by students from the Commander Islands in Russia. You can feel and see the movements and nesting behaviors of the birds. Enjoy!
