Grizzly Bear Family, Yellowstone NP - This was a "beary" good day for bears. We were fortunate to see this mama grizzly with her two cubs grubbing for food just off to the side of the road, not 50 feet away. We later saw two black bears and another grizzly chowing down on an elk carcass. But that's not all. We saw mountain goats, elk (live ones!), pronghorn, mule deer, golden mantle ground squirrels, great blue heron and, of course, numerous bison. Near the end of the day, we found a den of wolves - three adults and three little ones. Unfortunately, they were still very small specks; even with the equivalent 1344mm lens system we used. We'll be in the Yellowstone/Tetons region for the next week, so we'll keep trying for closer-in wolves.
