Yellowstone

June 1, 2025

We went into Yellowstone early yesterday morning. Boy oh boy we saw some wildlife!!!

A group of mountain goats crossed the road right in front of us!

We saw bears – the lighter face is Jam. The other one is her boyfriend we nicknamed Toast.

We’ve been saying for quite a while we’d like to be the first ones to see a bear instead of coming upon a big crowd of photographers. It happened! We saw a pair of black bears running in among the trees. I got out and searched but couldn’t find them. Vic meanwhile drove a ways then came back. When I got back in the truck there were the black bears again! They were still running but I managed to get a couple of shots before they ran away.

We don’t know what spooked them.

Then we saw a bison with a calf.

Then we saw a bird fly in with his prey. I thought it was a Hawk. Turned out it was a Northern Harrier! Wow!

Continuing on…This all happened on the same day!

We couldn’t believe we saw all this on the same trip into the Park.

Here’s a couple of scenery shots. Everywhere you go it’s one beautiful vista after another.

Hope you enjoyed the show.

Safe travels!
