Imagine watching a bald eagle close up. Or joining a puffin inside its burrow. Or plunging over rocky cliffs into the water to gaze at giant barnacles and other sea life.
Now you can do all this and more — virtually. An HHMI grant enabled the Pratt Museum in Homer, Alaska, to place several video cameras on nearby Gull Island in Kachemak Bay. Soon the birds on the island became accustomed to their electronic companions, even as students and other visitors controlled the cameras remotely from the museum. You can check out the action, too, in six video clips that bring Alaska to your computer.
