Greetings from Iceland - 🇮🇸
Today we explored a glacial ice cave near the town of Vik on the south coast, famous for its black sand beaches, and after the guided tour we were treated to a wonderful encounter with an arctic fox! This is my sixth trip to Iceland, and previously I'd only caught a brief glimpse of an arctic fox, so this was a rare opportunity. Our guests were thrilled, as were Mike and I. Tomorrow we will make our way to Vatnajökull (Europe's largest glacier), then to the east fjords and eventually across the highlands to the north.
Cheers!
Colin
Arctic Fox, Svalbard
It would be easy to scroll past this photo without noticing the arctic fox looking right at you. Masters of camouflage, their fur changes colors with seasons, from grey/brown in summer to pure white in winter.
