This video is called Ortelius, polar bear, Svalbard June 2015.
This morning, Dutch Vroege Vogels radio broadcast an interview with participants in the big Dutch Svalbard expedition who had counted birds from the expedition ship Ortelius.
They did not only see birds, but also cetaceans; including fin whale, minke whale and white-beaked dolphin.
Among the bird species counted were Atlantic puffins, fulmars, kittiwakes, glaucous gulls, ivory gulls, little auks and Brünnich’s guillemots.

I was lucky enough to see a humpback breaching in the Antarctic (not in Svalbard).
