Just a few pictures

Pygmy Owl.  Dern near knocked me over but was courteous enough to pose for a picture afterwards.
Grouse Fajitas!  Yum!

One of two Whitetail fawns accompanying a Doe in the Yonderosa Meadow.

Surprisingly this has been a pretty good year for both Deer and Grouse at the Yonderosa.  Spring and a late arriving Summer don't generally favor the 'babes in the woods' but I'm seeing bunches of both.  LOTS of berries too.  The Bears are fattening up nicely.  Grouse crops I've seen are filled with Kinnikinik berries, ants, leafs and needles in their crops.

    Wasn't Kinnikinik something the natives smoked in some of their ceremonies?

    The Whitetail fawns sure do look different than our Mule deer fawns. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
