Chukotka Peninsula, Russia

Chukotka Peninsula is the northeastern extremity of Asia. Its eastern end is at Cape Dezhnev near the village of Uelen. It is bordered by the Chukchi Sea to the north, the Bering Sea to the south, and the Bering Strait to the east. The peninsula is part of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug of Russia.

Arctic poppies, saxifrage and other hardy plants erupt into blossom during the long days of summer. Least and Crested Auklets, Tufted and Horned Puffins, guillemots and other seabirds crowd nesting cliffs on several islands.
