The northernmost reaches of Alaska contain a vast expanse of tundra wetlands, which are home to some of the highest recorded densities of breeding shorebirds in the Arctic. This is "America's Arctic," and millions of birds from all over the world flock to Alaska's wetlands every year to nest and raise their young.
Come along with Cornell Lab, Center for Conservation Media photographer Gerrit Vyn as he travels to the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska near Teshekpuk Lake to capture images of some of the region’s most iconic bird species.
America’s Arctic is one of North America’s last great wilderness areas, a critical habitat for migratory birds from around the world, and a treasure to be protected for future generations.
The Department of the Interior has issued a new rule protecting 13 millions acres of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, and are soliciting public comments until Nov 7, 2023. Please consider adding your voice of support here: www.protectthearctic.org/corn... .

US Congress should designate this area as a protected national forest so that all these birds don't lose their nesting grounds.

Congress is a service to self system. They won't do anything for anyone or anything but themselves...
We need to protect this area and others before they’re gone. It’s important people.
Thank you scientists❤
So beautiful💕
Loved the footage of the little chicks - just beautiful!
3:51 ----- 7,000 mile flight from Alaska to New Zealand in seven to nine days, non-stop. Mind blown.
These birds are more photogenic than me! 🐦📸
As a birdwatcher, thank you.
I’m so grateful to live in Alaska! It’s the most beautiful place in the world!❤
I petitioned the BLM to NOT search for petroleum in this unique, important and treasured area. Thank you for the beautiful videography!
I'm from Argentina and I've made videos about birds species that reproduce in those lands and then come to my country to their resting period, thank you for showing this video it's very grateful to see this

Brilliant, beautiful film
This is an amazing piece from start to finish. From the cinematography, to the music selection, nat pops, and overall editing. It's one of the best things I've seen on KZread.
🫡Thank you, Gerrit Vyn. For making and sharing this spectacular video with us all. How truly gifted you are! 🤩❤️😍🥰 🇺🇸
Waiting for the babies emerge ❤❤

National Petroleum Reserve! China will probably end up with it sucking all the oil out of it!
Amazing video
Stunning photography, what a privilege to see and photograph these birds close up!
Great video!
Definitely eye opening …
This makes me proud as a Cornell alumnus. 😎🤓
Amazing 🎉❤❤
What an interesting 8 minutes!! Thanks for making this.
Wow amazing video you captured such great pictures wow keep it up
What an amazing video! The picture, sound and most of all the incredible journey these birds take each year! Awesome content.
❤ sitting here in South Africa and looking at this clip, if so nice. May it be protected for the next generations.
Stunning imagery and such a useful brief on the birds that nest that far out from where they normally belong. We need more like this and these should make their way to schools so kids learn and know about them and why and how it is important
A challenge anyone to watch this start to finish and not be awe-inspired and feel a sense of care and pride for this place.
Just Wow❤️
Great movie. Familiar tundra sounds to me causes nostalgia.
Fantastic photography with educational commentary. Thank You.
What a Fantastic Video! Im actually a Professional Extreme Sports Filmmaker and Photographer for 35 Years and this Film was Absolutely Outstanding! Its So Important to Save this Wild place for Generations to come!!
What a fantastic video. Such an amazing ecosystem!!
The best bird photography video that I have seen in KZread.
Powerful. Beautiful. Sending this to my representatives!
2:05 King Eiders are cool and colourful. 🌈 3:55 - 4:15 Travelling 11,265 kilometres without sleeping, resting, or eating sounds like a fictitious superpower! 🤯 8:22 Beautiful closing words, Sir. 👏🏾
Wonderful! I've seen some of these species, going to or coming back from the Arctic! 👍♥️
I hope one day I could travel to Artic wetland to witness these
The American public needs more education on the importance of conservation of bird habitat. 🐦
Beautiful photography. I am envious of your visit to this beautiful area.
I like it I love it I want some more of it.
I got ghosebumps every minute of watching this video. Must be an insane experience to be there. I can just wish i could be on your place somewhere in the future. Good job.
A fantastic piece.
जयतु!अतिसुंदर👍💐🙏
Incredible. John. OSME.

Was hoping to see the godwits!! Love seeing them here. (Christchurch, nz)
Nature❤❤❤ Videography is splendid❤❤❤
Beautiful birds and beautiful filming ❤
The Wonderful Nature! How to be protected from humans...👽🗡️
Just great! Thanks for this great insight into this beautiful nature!! Greetings from Austria.
God is amazing . We can't even know how many species of birds he created . Thanks for these gentlemen's hard work so we can see these fantastic videos .
Staggeringly beautiful. That Pacific Loon (Diver), oh my word. Thank you for making this.
Absolutely superb videography with a very important message. This habitat MUST be permanently protected and conserved, not sacrificed to fossil fuel profiteering.
Wonderful video as usual.
Fantastic video. My first experience with a loon was in a retention pond next to a Walmart lol.
Beautiful 💙
Amazing video! The nests are so well hidden, are there any kind of precautions or methods used to make sure you didn't accidentally trample any of them while scoping them out?
Amazing!
Lets talk about the Fox. How many babys does she have. 😢 The lemmings, the eggs, the work. Good luck mama fox. Also, Sir, this is an includible shoot. Congratulations and TY
incredible
I wish I had his job.
Amazing information and filming.
Nice vid. Lucky are the people who can visit a truly untouched land like this! I had the chance to photography the Rudy Turnstone this past spring here on the New Jersey Coast. Not being a birder, had to look it up & the book says they head up to the Artic Tundra & show Northern Alaska. Some beautiful looking birds in this video.
Lindo demais parabens. Grande abraço Brasil
❤
🙏🙏👍
Thank you for this beautiful view of the world's bird nursery. Of course, awareness must be raised to protect it. Russia also shares Arctic with USA maybe wildlife people there can be contacted. Remarkable to see the tundra from above appearing much like rice paddies in China.
INCRÍVEL! SHOW!
Simply perfect! thank you very much for the excellent content and congratulations for the same!!!
Nice mini-documentery! Will this be a part of s larger documentary?
👍♻️
MY LORD, HOW TRULY SPECTACULAR YOUR BIRDS 🦅 ARE! THANK YOU 🙏🏻 FOR ALLOWING MY EYES TO SEE SOME OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL CREATIONS. ALL PRAISE AND GLORY TO YOU O LORD!! ☝🏻♥️😍🥰
Beautiful!!! Thank you for this content. I signed the petitions against Willow, Conoco Phillips and #46.
You should make two videos. One with the distracting music and commentary and another with just the natural ambient sound 🎉
I meant most not must opps
I sure hope this doesn't enourage tourism to what seems a very vulnerable area
This should be humans church
You need to learn how to paddle a canoe, first move the seat forward to keep the bow down second learn a simple J stroke third your usingthat paddle bacwards. If your paddling solo in a regular canoe turn the boat around and sit in the bow seat backwards so you are now looking at the stern, that way you are more forward and you will keep the front of the boat down. It drives me nuts watching people paddle a canoe...If you learn the simple J stroke you can paddle must of the day from one side and not have to go from side to side, which makes it difficult to go straight. Also I use canoes and kayaks I use a kayak in open seas and canoes in creeks and rivers and lakes they can get into much tighter places and are far more quiet. Take me with you next time I'll teach you for free😊
Much of the stone art that I found in North Carolina is a depiction of a bird as the main outside image. Ancient people cannot carry around 20 different statues so they created a multi faceted style of art that I am trying to share with you so that you can actually learn the true history instead of relying on theory. The books before books were made of Stone.
One way to protect this type of area is to sign it over to Canada. They seem to have a better record at protecting wild areas than America does.
People can eat those birds in these video some kfc.
More birds less talk. The commentary is not needed.
