Olympic National Park. This deer was spotted on the shores of Lake McDonald. (Hint! The rocks are NOT colorful! The lake is pretty, but don’t be deceived by the edited pictures on Instagram. We were.)
National Elk Refuge, Jackson Hole, Wyoming. These guys weren’t exactly cute, and they also weren’t the type of bighorn sheep we were used to seeing. I actually thought they were Dall’s sheep at first, haha. 😏 But when we went home, I looked in a field guide and discovered that no, they weren’t Dall’s sheep….
Elk Land. There’s not much to say about this picture, except, well, there’s a bunch of elk.
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.
Fall City, Washington. I was just walking around in our site, and I leapt back–a snake? 😨 But, after the generally general, scary scare, I looked closer. Aha and avast! At last! A banana slug. If it was a banana, it was rather unripe. 🤣 These beastly beasts best even the best of sluggish slugs….
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. 🙂
Lassen Volcanic National Park. Obviously. This cute little guy watched us for a while, and we sure watched him. It was so neat to see this new species! What’s your favorite type of squirrel? There are over two hundred different types, so choose well!
I don’t have instagram, but thank you for telling me that it’s fake! 😇👍
No prob! 😁
