Spotting Animals in Jackson Wyoming

On a weekend in Feb. we had visitors. The weekend was filled with food, fun and a usual activity. 

Our usual thing to do when my daughter and her family come to see us is to go for a drive to see what we can see. Antelope, deer, elk, bison, bears, moose and once a porcupine in a tree have been seen on past drives. This time we saw elk, coyotes, big horn sheep and a mama moose with her calf. 

I didn't get any really great pictures since most of the animals were far away and the light in the snow storm was bad. Mostly we  watched nature's outdoor show through binoculars.


The big horn sheep were hanging out on a hill on the National Elk Refuge.


Way off in the distance is part of the elk herd on the refuge this year.


This is mama moose. Her calf was in some bushes close by. This was near the Gros Ventre River near the town of Kelly.

Being able to see scenes like these if just one of the reasons living in or visiting the Jackson Wyoming area so special. It also makes me sometimes wish that I had a better camera and was good at using it. 

Back with more again soon. Take care, stay safe and stay cozy!
