Pam & Bob in Yellowstone.

On our way to the AANR convention last month, we stopped near Yellowstone National Park for a week.

I took so many pictures I had to break them into categories (animals, flowers, and water) just to make sense of them.
This trumpeter swan was the less than spectacular first animal we came across.
Happening upon this little fellow as we walked a secluded trail was a pleasant surprise.
You can see there was a camera hog horning in on the picture I was taking of an elk grazing in the Mammoth Hot Springs area.
When we saw other tourists pointing their cameras, we knew to head in that direction.
Traffic jams were always another clue that wildlife was nearby.
Although there were tales of bear sightings, we saw none.

We did see lots of other park features that grabbed our attention. Stay tuned for flower and water reports.

Thanks, Sue and Patsy! Yellowstone is one awsome place. But it can't compare to Sandpipers when it comes to people! Looking forward to returning the beginning of December.
