We found a pair of Trumpeter Swans (Cygnus buccinator) on Cascade Lake in Yellowstone National Park. It was a bit of good timing that we found them foraging close to the trail. #birds #swans #yellowstonenps

We ran into these three juvenile American badgers (Taxidea taxus) in the Lamar Valley on our first day of hiking in Yellowstone National Park last week. There was also a disinterested adult at the entrance to the den. #mammals #badgers #wildlifephotography

We're looking forward to our trip to Yellowstone National Park this June. Last year, we stayed closer to Grand Teton National Park and only went to Yellowstone for a day. #wildlifephotography #yellowstonenps #yellowstone

Happy #WrensDay! There were several species of Wrens out this morning. The Bewick's and Canyon Wrens were calling from far away and mostly hiding. This Rock Wren (Salpinctes obsoletus) wasn't nearly as shy and gave a good vocal performance before flying off. #birds #wrens #wildlife

We have some highlights from last night's live feed of the Western Screech-Owl Nest Box in our backyard.
There are currently four eggs in the nest. The male does most of the hunting throughout the night, while the female mostly stays with the eggs.
