A Visit to West Yellowstone MT

We had a fun trip to West Yellowstone National Park yesterday. We got to see some wildlife in their own habitat. One that we saw was unbelievable, and to see in the wild is unheard of. We saw a father bald eagle protecting his nest of young eagles. You could see two little eagle heads poking out of the nest. We also saw old faithful, buffalo, coyote, and elk as well.

Late Morning Visitor

I awoke from my slumber (short as it was) I heard a squawking. It wasn'tthe kids or the cats it was a frantic noise.. I had to do further investigation into what was this alarm clock, waking me up after a few short hours of sleep??

Well from the pictures you can see it was a baby Blue Jay learning to fly and it's mother was the squawking. She yelled at me the whole time I was taking pictures of her baby. She was very camera shy and kept herself well hidden in the trees. That is when she wasn't swooping down near me..
