We spent the day in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. It was a beautiful day! There wasn't a lot of people, and lots of birds and animals out.
We saw a wolf dragging an Elk carcass out of the water. We still don't have a really good camera, so I took a picture through our spotting scope. Not so bad, huh?
This is us at Jenny Lake with our camera on a timer. It had warmed up nicely and we didn't need a jacket. Sorry about getting half the rock in the picture.
But the highlight of our trip, and one of the main purposes, was to see these guys. Can you see them? Squint really close. He's sitting on top of that rock in the middle of the river.
That's a Harlequin Duck! We saw a news story about them still being in the Yellowstone. Normally they leave pretty early, but they were there a few extra weeks this year. So we wanted to see them. Here we are moments after seeing our new bird. Don't we look so happy!
Here is a picture from Google, so I know what we saw! We love the parks!
