Sept 27 - Wolf Pack

Today was a special day, we had our first glimpse of a yellowstone wolf pack - The Druids. Although they were far away, across the Lamar Valley floor we were non-the-less excited to see part of Yellowstone's successful wolf story in action. We could see 4 wolves, a pup, his baby sitter and 2 others (a black and a grey) who came back in from the mountains as we watched.
Today we also watched a herd of Bighorn (Rocky Mountain) Sheep navigate the steep flanks of Mount Washburn. In the Lamar Valley we watched pronghorns grazing. And in the nearby forest we caught a few glimpses of a wary moose.
