Wow, great find! I think that's a long tailed weasel.

Muskrat and Merlin

Every visit these last few years, I have made a tradition of parking my rental in one of the pullouts in Little America and taking a hike off-road.

Re: 5/24 Day 2

Wow, you were luckier than I was with the fox. I went there over and over looking for it and saw nothing.

May 24...last (half) day

I had to leave the park early to get to Bozeman and take care of a few things because my flight leaves very early. I had stayed at Bridge Bay last night so I checked for the owl first (and then again, and again) but no luck. Nothing going on in the Hayden...at least not that you could see with all t...

May 23

Spent the morning in the Lamar Valley and didn't see much.
Took a hike in Little America and photographed a muskrat in a pond.
Then I abandoned that side of the park and headed east and got Snow at Steamboat Point.

Went from there out to the Lamar Valley and started slow. Didn't see much close enough to photograph, though I did watch a gr...
