Yellowstone National Park - Old Faithful

I try to stick to my theme of 'birds, plants and other things in the garden', but I'm going to post some pictures from a recent trip to the Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park.  These two national parks are nature's gardens.


It was snowing May 6th, our first day in Yellowstone.  The bison didn't seem to mind.

Yellowstone National Park - Waterfalls


We saw three waterfalls in Yellowstone Park.  We also saw a nest of Osprey (Fish eagles) on top of a spire.

Yellowstone National Park - Grizzly Bear and Cubs!

We saw this mother Grizzly bear and her three cubs.  It was fun watching the cubs tumble and play.
