buglinbilly Loc: Murray, Utah

I just got home from a fun week in Yellowstone with my wife and two dogs. I took lots of wildlife photos, but very few scenic photos.

I am just unloading the trailer now, and have just loaded the photos on my computer and will take a break, every so often, to look through a few and edit a few.

I took this photo, the very first morning, in Gibbons meadow. While I was shooting, I noticed most of the elk, paying close attention, to one area and soon I noticed why. Mr. Wolf was passing through. I took this photo just before the wolf appeared.

I will post more on this thread once I get some time to get things done and look at the ones I took.

It was a fun week and I hope you will enjoy a bit of what I got to enjoy.

Have a good one. BB

Wow! I like #1, pin sharp and great head position. Just like he was sitting for a portrait.

Notice the goose in the background of photo 1.

These photos were taken in the fog and early mornings first light, so not that great, other than i sure like the backdrop.

This was the only wolf i saw and he was too far out, but the photo tells a story.

An hour or so later I ran into my first bear. A smaller black bear. I would have had a really good photo, but just as I set up to take a photo, the ranger pulled up and make me retreat back beyond my truck, so this is most likely the best photo I have of this bear.

Not long after I took this photo of a Uinta Ground squirrel,and the left the area, a guy told me he watched a coyote catch and eat a squirrel in the exact same area, where i had taken this photo. I hope it wasn't her, as she was a nursing mom!

Not long after the photo above, this bull took over his spot and watched as a wolf passed at some distance.

Here's an example of just getting setup and this bear all of a sudden just takes off. I felt lucky to get this shot. Had I been 10 seconds longer setting up, I would have missed it.
