Yellowstone Wildlife Megapost

As many of you know, I've recently had a big change in my life when it comes to what I do on a daily basis- I've moved offices and began a new position last week.  I'm getting settled in and adjusting to the new schedule.  I haven't gotten out much on my own time.   I also have so much material from Yellowstone it is unbelievable, but with this post, I'll wrap things up and bring this blog back to Ohio once again.  I hope you enjoy some of the cooler things we observed the first week of June 2010.

Cinnamon teal, Anas cyanoptera

Sage thrasher, Oreoscoptes montanus

 

Unknown raptor

Yellow-headed blackbird, Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus

Audubon's warbler, Dendroica auduboni, recently elevated to species rank once again.

Common raven, Corvus corax

And the Mammals

Uinta ground squirrel, Urocitellus armatus

Bighorn sheep, Ovis canadensis

Grizzly Bear, Ursus arctos horribilis

  

 American black bear, Ursus americanus 

Coyote, Canis latrans

and finally:

American badger, Taxidea taxus

And there you go, I hope you enjoyed my little adventure to Yellowstone as much as I did.
