Baby Island, Alaska

The Baby Islands are a group of small islands located about 2 kilometers (1.2 mi) northeast of Unalga Island in the Fox Islands group of the Aleutian Islands of southwestern Alaska. The group consists of five islands ranging from 300 to 1000 metres (980 to 3280 ft) long and several smaller islets. The islands are uninhabited and none of them rise more than a few metres above sea level.

Large numbers of birds, notably the whiskered auklet, nest on the islands, making them a frequent stop for nature tours in the area (the group is located only 33 kilometres (21 mi) from Dutch Harbor on Unalaska Island).
