Osprey

I've refallen in love with some of the shots of this Osprey young, so i'm giving him a post of his own. It's a good thing mom/dad didn't drop by to attack my head while I was photographing him! There was a span of a few minutes there where he was screeching at me like there was no tomorrow. I think he was saying "go away!"

Birds!

Apparently, Spring is a good time in GTNP and Yellowstone for birders-- little did I know what I was in for! Previous times, i kept forgetting to look up/in the trees/etc. Big mistake! There's plenty of birds to be see around both parks, and plenty of enjoyment for bird watchers of all kinds! The Moose-Wilson area nearby Jackson hole, right on the outskirts of the entrance to Grand Teton National park is a fantastic place for smaller, colorful birds and well as herons... I saw plenty of hawks throughout both parks, and several birds- including blue ruffled grouse and sapsuckers have made their homes in the mammoth-lamar valley area!

Any ID on the hawk would be appreciated, as i can't find him on google
