Yellowstone National Park. This white-crowned sparrow was hopping around, so I snagged a few pictures. There’s not much to say about it, but it’s cute. 🙂

Yellowstone National Park. This dude was clopping down the road. Bison commonly cause traffic jams in YNP. It’s worth it the first few times, but if you’re there a whole summer, you’ll know what I mean by “boring”. 😛 The proud guys think they own the roads. And everything else.
Yellowstone National Park.
