Alaska's Longest Work Day

 Summer Solstice 2011

A young beaver is pictured above working next to my Anchorage residence at 11:30 pm during the longest day of the calendar year (June 21).  The industrious far north critter's work schedule is accelerated during the hours of twilight and dusk.  In Alaska those hours are extended throughout the night during the Summer Solstice transition period.  - Doug
