  • An iceberg carries a rock though Jökulsárlón, Iceland's glacial lagoon. Glaciers have been known to carry rocks great distances. Rocks fall onto glaciers, which move slowly down mountains. When the glacier melts so much that it can no longer support the rock, the rock is dropped and it becomes known as a glacial erratic. The term referrs to rocks that are different in size, shape or composition from other rocks around them.

  • A bald ealge (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) flies, clutching a mallard duck drake (Anas platyrhynchos) that it caught on Lake Washington near Kirkland, Washington. The mallard is the most common duck in the United States and typically weighs up to 3 pounds (1.4 kilograms). Bald eagles generally weigh between 6 and 14 pounds (3 to 6.3 kilograms) and they are typically capable of lifting up to half of their body weight.

  • A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) kit runs with prey provided by its mother in tall grass in San Juan Island National Historical Park on San Juan Island, Washington. Even though both of these foxes are black, all of the foxes in the park are technically red foxes, regardless of their color. Red foxes were introduced to San Juan Island on various occasions in the 1900s.

  • A young red fox (Vulpes vulpes) runs with the leg of a European rabbit on the prairie of the San Juan Island National Historical Park on San Juan Island, Washington. All of the foxes in the park are technically red foxes, even if they are black, silver or tan. Red foxes were introduced to San Juan Island on various occasions in the 1900s.

  • A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) runs with a European rabbit (Oryctolagus cunuculus) it caught in the prairie of San Juan Island National Historical Park on San Juan Island, Washington. Both foxes and rabbits were introduced to San Juan Island. The rabbits were introduced to the island in the 1890s by settlers; foxes were introduced occasionally in the 1900s. The European rabbits in particular are considered an invasive species, turning the prairie into an unsustainable barren landscape with their vast burrows. This displaces small native mammals, such as the Townsend's vole. Seconds after this image was taken, a bald eagle attacked the fox to steal the rabbit.

  • Seven American crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos), one carrying food that it scavenged, fly past maple trees displaying a variety of autumn colors in Kenmore, Washington.

  • An Atlantic puffin (Fratercula arctica) shows off its tongue, which is specially adapted to allow it to carry many fish in its bill at one time. Atlantic puffins typically carry about 10 fish in their bills at one time, using their tongues to hold their catch against spines on their palate. This Atlantic puffin was photographed on the Látrabjarg bird cliff in Iceland; about 60 percent of all Atlantic puffins breed in Iceland.

  • A dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) seedhead stands among blades of grass in Snohomish County, Washington. Each of the flower's seeds is attached to a feathery parachute called a pappus, which allows the wind to carry the seeds great distances.

  • A group of turkey vultures (Cathartes aura) circles over the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in southeastern Oregon. The turkey vultures circled to catch rising pockets of hot air, known as thermals, which carried them higher in the sky.

  • The large Schultz Lake and thousands of others are visible in the golden light of dusk in this aerial view over Nunavut, Canada. The lakes are in the Kivalliq Region (also spelled Keewatin). The Thelon River carries water into and out of Schultz Lake.

  • These tall, narrow pillars known as The Pinnacles were formed during the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Mazama, which formed Crater Lake, Oregon. Volcanic gasses rose through layers of dacite pumice and andesite scoria in vents known as fumaroles. With temperatures of 750 degrees Fahrenheit (400 Celsius), the hot gasses welded the sides of the fumaroles. After erosion carried away the rest of the pumice and scoria, these hardened fossil fumaroles were all that remained.

  • Numerous icebergs float in Jökulsárlón, the Glacier Lagoon, in southeastern Iceland. Big chunks of ice break off from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier and float in the lagoon until they melt or are carried by changing tides out to the Atlantic Ocean.

  • Two bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), an adult and a juvenile, feed at the edge of the Squamish River in Brackendale, British Columbia, Canada. The juvenile found a scrap of food on a log and carried it to the edge of the river. The adult chased the young eagle and snatched the food, visible on its right foot, for itself.

  • A juvenile bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) feeds on a fish caught by one of its parents. The parent delivered the fish to the nest. Of the two young eagles, this one arrived first and carried the fish away to another tree where it could eat in private.

  • A bright rainbow forms in the mist as the river Þjórsá drops at the waterfall Urriðafoss in southern Iceland. Urriðafoss, which means "The Waterfall of the Salmon," is only 6 meters (19 feet) tall, but carries the greatest water volume of any waterfall in Iceland. The water volume is typically 360 cubic meters per second.
