Although the snow geese and the coyote seemed content to be going about their respective business in the pre-dawn light I think this might change as the day goes on.

Just as we turned a corner while skiing on the Blacktail plateau we came across this guy having breakfast. We watched him for a minute but when he stomped his front hoof and gave us a grunt knew it was time for Quick U turn. We did not get to ski to our planned destination but it was a good day nonetheless.
My first thoughts upon seeing this Surf Scooter (just a speck in that big ocean) hanging out taking on the crashing waves and doing it seamlessly was pure amazement. How can a species be so well adapted to such a crazy environment. Then on second thought I guess they are no different than humans speeding along on a snow covered highway during Monday morning rush hour. Nature finds a way.

Hangin’ with the big guys on a cold winter day.

Well that’s what I think this young bison is saying. Yellowstone NP last winter.

Every winter there seems to be a single wood duck couple inhabiting the stretch of the south platte river we visit to photograph the waterfowl that overwinter in the area. This years is no exception.
