Wednesday, July 30
Our goal for Wednesday was to meander over roads where we had seen wildlife and beautiful scenery on the previous two days.
We continued to see bison as we traveled away from the Mud Volcano area.
As you can see, the fog had not yet lifted in Hayden Valley.
I liked this view of a few Canada geese as we came over a small hill.
Then the scene changed to a bit of a silhouette as I faced the sun.
I think I could travel over these roads for days and continue to see new things.
It is always exciting to come across a scene like this and wonder what they are watching.
These were some serious wildlife watchers!
They had been watching four grizzlies ~ at quite a distance ~ that had just disappeared from their view. We also heard stories of them watching five wolves from this spot the night before.
By now it was about 9:30 AM, and the fog had finally lifted.
We had seen several mule deer, but this was the first nice buck.
Each time we stopped, I took time to look for pretty vegetation and flowers.
I love your eye for the wildlife and the wildflowers! Beautiful — and you really saw the grandeur of Yellowstone!
You said that correctly. We did see the grandeur of Yellowstone.
every day, you leave me sighing to go back where we were last year ~ such a special place ~
Special indeed!
