Bull Moose comes wandering into our neighboorhood.
Only two blocks west of our home and over 35 White-tailed Deer
ran away from this large intruder.
The moose is running back and forth figuring out which way to go.
Jumping the fence toward us.
Wait a minute! it looks better back there!
Time to rest for a while, Exits heading south.
Fall is definetly here! No more velvet, no more spotted fawns and starting to bump heads.
This field had 106 deer today.
Bare peaks of the Bridger Mountains will soon be covered in snow.
Predidted for tomorrow.
Another gorgeous sunrise!
Pinyon Jays have come back to our feeders.
Forty Jays swarmed into the yard.
Went through a lot of bird seed!
Red-tailed Hawk soars overhead

Just south of the Crazy Mountains is this large ridge. It is called Sheep Mountain

Had to go back to Tom Miner Basin. Five Grizzly Bears were still feeding up for hibernation.
At Corwin Springs a few Bighorn Sheep have arrived
A flock of Bighorns, consisting mostly ewes and lambs, with a couple young rams.
The full curl Rams are still at higher elevation.
Elk herd crosses the Yellowstone River.
Beelike Tachinid Flies were sucking flower nectar
