Clare, from The House & other Arctic musings, has posted a little video of a passing narwhal pod that he took while on a trip to the Floe Edge [73^o 38' N, -84^o 3' W] earlier this year. A narwhal (Monodon monoceros) is an arctic member of the whale/dolphin/porpoise family.

Today, Clare followed this up with a short video of an Ivory Gull (Pagophila eburnea). Clare's video clips are a bit large, so access them with a highspeed connection if possible.

Great. I and the Bird is never gonna be the same now that we have to compete with this kind of thing...
