We got up at 5 am and were on the road soon thereafter. Our plan was to get to Lamar Valley where the wolves are. After driving a couple of hours we found that the road was closed. On the way back we saw several bison walking along the side of the road. They each were by themselves, it was not a group thing. They were close enough I could have reached out my hand and touched it (but of course I didn’t!).
On the way back we saw some bears. Vic had the camera opportunity this time.
The first two shots are of a bear we saw on a hill foraging when something startled him/her and he/she took off running. Then they sat on the hillside looking over their shoulder but whatever startled them did not come out over the hill.


These bears were further on down the road. Jam is a bear we first saw two years ago.




It’s been cloudy, cold and rainy for a couple of days but we’re expecting sun tomorrow.
Stay safe everyone.
