Gretchen, Bjorn and I went to Yellowstone Saturday with three goals: see an otter, see a moose, and see Kaila. We accomplished exactly none of those objectives. We did, however, play in the snow on Bearooth Pass, find spawning cutthroat trout, and some bears, all while being incredibly ridiculous.

Many, many, many trout, and way too much time spent watching, harassing, and photographing them.

Deadman's Basin
I attempted to go fishing today, but it was too windy for me to cast properly. So I wandered around and found lots of cool birds instead!

Pryor Mountains
The last couple of weekends I've been going up to the Pryors to help Rob out with his small mammal trapping project. The trapping was ok, nothing really exciting, but we had some good times in the mountains.
Bear Canyon
Trying to set traps in the hail/snow/fog day.
Finding a turkey and a campfire.
Found a bullsnake and, of course, a cow.
The next weekend was a shorter one, just Friday and Saturday for the end of the study.
A juvenile golden/bald eagle and camp.
A grouse and the low clouds coming down off the mountains.
A tiger beetle in the desert and a yellow-headed blackbird at the Bighorn visitor center.
