Yellowstone Great Horned Owls & Owlets June 2016

Post by Deb1741 »

Some pics taken by my grandson Braeden of the Mammoth owls and an owl nest along side the Beartooth Pass road outside the park during our annual June trip to the park (June 13-18). He is pretty devastated right now as he has lost a very full scan disk that has pics of the two black bear sows fighting, along with pics of harlequin ducks on the LeHardy Rapids. The ducks have been on our bucket list to see so we were pretty excited when we found 5 on the river the day we went there. He changed disks out when we were scoping and taking pics of a lone wolf on our way out of the park so probably lost it there. We'll be back in the park 6/29-30 on the way back from his freshman orientation at Montana State University so will go to the spot we were at to check to see if it fell on the ground.

Great stuff. That one with the baby bird is really interesting.

Keep him motivated, he's good.
