In the wild: Animals edition
-
I took these photos a couple of years ago in Yellowstone. I highly recommend visiting the park when there's still snow on the ground. It makes spotting wildlife so much easier, and we only saw a couple of dozen humans all day.
Bison eating by the river.
Coyotes running across a clearing.

@seawolf those pictures are beautiful. I need to make it out there one day. Might take some convincing to get the wife out in some snow though.

@ZackB she will love it. It is a magical place.

@ZackB The snow wouldn't have been my first choice, but man, was it worth it. We basically had the park to ourselves. In the summer, there can be bumper-to-bumper traffic through the park because you have to deal with everyone stopping to take pictures of the wildlife. We were able to move through the park at our own pace, and pull over whenever we wanted to take pictures without impeding anyone else's day. These pics are from March, so it wasn't the dead of winter, and not unpleasantly cold or anything.

@seawolf I would definitely take the snow over a million people being there. Thank you for all the info, we are trying to plan something for next year.

Something got them eggs again. The feathering was ripped out and I found no trace of them but a shell fragment. Nature is red in tooth and nail.

I came home last night after being out all day, and the landscapers cut Josie's tree nearly in half when they pruned it. The nest, although wonky, is no more. So glad the baby fledged a few days ago! I would have been devastated if someone unknowingly decided to prune a tree and kill a baby hummingbird in the process.

Didn’t have the right lens at that moment but still got some nice shots…
