Long and Winding Road
Today’s post features a lone, wild wolf that I encountered in Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley a few winters ago. While driving the snowy road, this lone wolf was seen as he seemed to wander about, following a path in the snow. Wolf behavior is very complex and I’m not sure what his goal was. Was it […]
Hunting in the Snow
Today’s post features a lone, red fox as it forages in Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley, for rodents under the snow cover. Watching a red fox hunting in snow is a real treat.

Today’s post features a fall colors image I captured outside my kitchen window during the recent fall color change at the Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri). As all the trees were transitioning into fall colors, a rainstorm hit. When the rain was over, I walked past the kitchen window and found this beautiful sight: Sorry […]
