"What do you see?"

That was the question I was asked because I was using my long lens on a popular trail. If I am using such a big piece of equipment, surely I see something interesting off in the distance. They didn't know how to react to my response - "A mountain bluebird in that dead tree".

 

People generally don't go to Yellowstone for the birds and they certainly don't do so when walking to the lookout for the Grand Prismatic Spring. But being from the east, I couldn't pass on the opportunity to catch an image of these lovely birds, especially if I got lucky to get one to land in the pine tree with orange-red needles.
