It's Not Hell On Earth, It's More Like A Dream

This will be the last Yellowstone post for a while I think. Here is an elk making a face at the nearby horde of tourists.

I discovered yet another new species of chipmunk. This type completely lacks forelimbs and locomotes the forest like a small Tyrannosaur.



A Red Crossbill ravages some fir cones.

Is nice, no?

A studly Mule Deer. He's probably shed his velvet by now and spends his time getting in fights and being incredibly horny.

American Dipper revisited, in less atrocious lighting.

Looking towards the Yellowstone River from the Mud Volcano area. Steamy.
Norris Geyser Basin. Some of these pools will not only melt your face, but your entire body...literally.

White-crowned Sparrow juvie.


Bison are capable of many things...this one is caught in the rarest of buffalo acts, being cute.





Buffalo watchers going apeshit.






Deer penis. It's something to think about.







Sunset through a geyser filter...and that was my last day in Yellowstone. Up next...Grand Teton National Park.
