Grizzly 399! (Wyoming)
Yellowstone National Park. Grizzly 399! Blurry picture, furry bear. This was super cool, especially noting the fact that she got hit by a car and died only four months later.

Scrub Jay in Scrub (California)
Paicines, California. This scrub jay showed up almost every morning at our site at San Benito Thousand Trails. Often, right before school (my sister and I are homeschooled, thanks to my mom) I would pull out my camera and look around for anything that might be near our site (see Deer Fawn, Critter Sightings and…

Huge Bison, Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming)
Yellowstone National Park. This big ol’ bison was slurping up muddy, seeping thermal water. Each time after doing that, he would lick his nostrils. You would be alarmed at how deep the tongue went into the nostril. He also had a tendency to yawn.

Elk Land. There’s not much to say about this picture, except, well, there’s a bunch of elk.

Yep! It’s pretty cool.
