The number and variety of animals that appeared near our truck in the short time we were there was surprising. It made me wish for a high quality camera, and it made John wish for a spotting scope. One of those wishes has come true, the other probably will eventually.
In addition to the photos below, we also caught sight of the following:
- Lots of elk
- Osprey, including one in a nest
- A female bighorn sheep hanging out on the side of a cliff
- Purple martins
- A coyote stalking pronghorn antelope
- Hawks soaring
- Possibly a heron, and many other birds I couldn't identify without a field guide
- A moose!
- Bald eagles!
- Yellow-bellied marmots :)
