Happy New Year from Yellowstone!

Wildlife in Yellowstone

Thought I would sneak a quick post in here before the first day of the new year is officially over. First lesson of the year: “Don’t bite off more than you can chew!”

This little guy was snacking on a recent elk carcass inside the park that the Canyon wolf pack have been visiting. No wolves today, but lots of other scavengers.

Winter around here and most of the state is still pretty bare and not much in the forecast. I spoke with a friend the other day  in the southern part of the state and he had 60 degrees fahrenheit on his thermometer! Hard to believe at the end of December. Although not quite that extreme today , the park was pleasant and temps in the 30’s. Still not too much snow though, cross our fingers for January…

Happy New Year to everyone!

More from Freezeout Lake

Freezeout Lake. Canon 7d, 500mm f4, 1.4tc

I was up at Freezeout Lake yesterday and boy how things have changed from a week ago! Last Sunday when I was there I think the count was around 5,000 swans and  a few thousand snow geese. Well as of yesterday the snow geese numbers went from a few thousand to over a hundred thousand! Needless to say there were a ton of birds and even with a lot of ice on the water, there was still a fair amount of open water and spectacular bird viewing.

Yesterday’s weather improved and the afternoon brought passing clouds with plenty of sun. Today however,not as pleasant with rain and snow showers. I am taking a guess, but I would say that the peak of the season may be sometime this week, there is just an amazing amount of birds there and it should stay that way for a bit. So if you’re in the area and can swing it, I think this week would be the week to go. Hopefully weather will improve and give us some spring weather already!
