Here's a few prairie dogs from the "town" just south of Devil's Tower in Wyoming. Thanks for the positive feedback on the bighorn image.

Sage, all your bird photos are marvelous.

Sage, all your bird photos are marvelous.

Thank you!!! It's a bit of a compulsion with me. Being a birder and a person who likes to point cameras at things can be on the addictive side of life.

Here's a nice pose on a pygmy nuthatch (Sitta pygmaea).

Very nice Mr. Sage! Creepers and nuthatches are underappreciated.

Thank you Mr 3Pin, and I agree. The little guys are often passed by for bigger or more 'impressive' species.

Here's a very pregnant coyote, hunting in the wet... Seems like an appropriate photo for our current weather...

Us too, but that's a mighty handsome raven also.

 

[Wandering Sagebrush]

Thanks for the kind words! Coyotes and Ravens are probably my two most favorite critters here in the west...

SR says she loves otters.
We saw a nice pair this summer swimming in one of our favorite mountain lakes.
