On a recent trip to Yellowstone NP we watched this young mountain goat along with his mother feeding on some nice fresh greens not far from Mammoth Hot Springs. It is always fun to get to see these guys and this youngster just looked so sweet in his classic mountain goat pose on top of a rock.

This year winter has yet to really visit me or I to visit it.
Bad timing with the jet stream, el nino, global warming or just too much time at work?

Well not very winding but fun nonetheless.
May your weekend be filled with nature in whatever form and fashion that finds it your way.
