I am in some Maryland mountains on a warm, sunny spring day, after a few days of rain. Some footpaths are now trickling little creeks, emptying into the year-round, main stream, over tiny waterfalls.
I once saw a mom and three cubs running in a valley in Yellowstone. I was up on a hill where the road was. I did not spot them myself. Rather, there was a traffic jam up ahead and I looked to see what all the other people were looking at or trying to see. I had no camera back them, though.
A few years later, I had my phone, and came upon a traffic jam near Lake Yellowstone. I saw a solitary grizzly, which I filmed from my car! Here is a still I made back then, which I shared on here:
@JoyfulSilence It really was a spine chilling experience…they’re so swift, and you can only hope they don’t turn around and attack you…that’s the uncertainty with wild animals, isn’t it?
In my case I was alone playing in the lake water and the rest of our group was sitting up on one of the decks.
Oh yeah…I remember you sharing this pic…what a magnificent beast!
