Yellowstone Wildlife

Yellowstone National Park

August 30, 2012

Yellowstone is the best place to photograph wildlife.  There are bison, elk, eagles, bear and wolves.  I have been lucky enough to enjoy photographing some wonderful animals.

I followed this huge bison along the Madison River at sunset.  He was headed to the barn and I couldn’t get a shot of his head.

The elk where peacefully grazing along the Madison River at sunset.  Two minutes after I shot this, they were bedded down for the night.

This young elk was grazing along the Madison River but was alerted by a group of noisy tourist.  It was a shushhhhhh moment.

This young buck elk was crossing the Madison River to get to a small island where he bedded down for the night.
