Odd composition for me since it was shot without moving the tripod. Misty morning in Yellowstone NP with bison in the foreground but in the wrong place. So I moved them😊
This was the beginning of my Spring Fling a few years ago, Custer State Park and the adjacent Wind Cave National Park. It had been a balmy spring day the day before, but then it snowed over night and kept snowing the next morning. A few bison were actually just off the highway here. I don't know if you've ever tried photographing wildlife in a snowfall, but flakes can be out-of-focus blobs. So it had lightened up a tad for this image.
The reason for the title, btw, is there just weren't any human visitors that snow day, had it almost just to myself and the animals.
an european bison bull strolls along the edges of Bialowieza NP forest in the search of food, north eastern poland.
The bull had clearly something romantic on his mind and led the cow away from the herd - unfortunately the paparazzi were already waiting for them.
American bison/ buffalo (Bos bison), Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.
This photo was taken from Yellowstone National Park. In this dreamscape we found lots of bisons.
The American bison are found only in North America and is the more numerous. Although commonly known as a buffalo in the United States and Canada.

The little bison "red dogs" were at the top of my Springtime Yellowstone list. So much fun to watch them.
Up close and personal with an icy bison on a frigid Yellowstone morning. I must admit, that the wild look in his eye gave me pause for concern. What this hiker fears most, is a lonely buffalo.

These young bulls were testing each other in a game of push. This was not a serious confrontation, but in late summer and fall it could get much more aggressive as the rut takes place.
Elk Island National Park, Alberta,
Bison at Yellowstone National Park. I spotted this trio around dusk, and they were on the move, so I had my camera set at ISO 1600. If they had stayed still and posed for me I would have gone for different settings, but I'm glad I managed to get a shot to remember them by!
When I spied this big guy and a bunch of his buddies by the side of the road in Yellowstone NP, I REALLY didn't need a sign to tell me not to camp there! It was an overcast, cool day, but they seemed happy that the huge amount of snow accumulated during the winter months was finally beginning to melt away and that winter coats could also now be shed. The herds were on the move and we saw many bison babies during our days in the park.
For me, there are certain images and sounds that I immediately associate with a sensation. The cry of a Red-Tail hawk, or the howl of a wolf, the sheer wildness of it--will stop me in my tracks. It is a goose-bump moment. I feel it in my bones before it hits my brain; any thinking is bypassed by this visceral reaction. My human bubble has been pierced, and something primal and wild has breached my world. I hang on to the sound, hoping to hear it again. My heart feels lifted, all my senses heightened, time has stopped.
I was thrilled about the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone. I was in whole support of it. I donated funds. I had read Aldo Leopold and found like-minded eloquence in his words. After 28 years, the success of the Yellowstone wolves fills me with hope that all is not lost in the natural world—we can make a difference. So, while it was a long shot, I yearned to catch a glimpse of these most wild of creatures during our visit.
Our guide, Steve Gettle prepared me and kept my expectations realistic, wolves are reclusive. But he is a nature photographer body and soul, and wolves draw he and his fiancée, Nicole Sudduth to Yellowstone as well. Sure enough, on our second day they spotted them, a pack of five. They were quite far, too far to photograph, on a hill top feeding on a recent successful hunt. The faithful ravens at their side.
A herd of bison grazed below them, seemingly unconcerned about the fate of their unfortunate comrade. Perhaps the bison knew they were at their safest now, with the wolves sated, and no other predator bold enough to enter their territory. At any rate, they seemed to be feeling rather frisky, and it was great fun to see them so lively.
Appears to be bashful or maybe sniffing the flowers but most likely just waking up from an afternoon nap.

Nothing will get the blood flowing like having a herd of bison running toward you as was the case last month in Yellowstone. A few hundred bison divided into three groups, decided to run on the road along the Madison River. Standing in front of the snow coach which was off the side of the road, gave them all the room they needed and chance for me to see and feel what a passing thundering herd is all about.
Another excursion to Elk Island Park. Really looking forward to this since I don’t much get out of the house. Also looking forward to make good use of the seating arrangements Parks Canada so graciously provided for people in my advanced stage of life. So, what do I find when I get there? The chairs were the main attraction for the Plains Bison herd. Did Parks Canada really have to use red for these chairs? Are they not aware of the red capes that matadors use in bull fights? As I am trying to cope with my disappointment of the unavailability of the chairs to provide me with the perfect picture taking environment, a thought took hold. Why not use this opportunity to do a chair shot? I got excited and tried to recall the perfect lemon juice recipe (if life provides you with lemons, make juice) and came up with this. Yes, perhaps the chairs are slightly over-accessorized but really, this is my first attempt at a chair shot, so cut me some slack already. And then I remembered the most important ingredient in any lemon juice is some 100% Agave “Tequila”.
Taking pan shots or motion blurs still remains to be one of my favorite activities when photographing bison and wildebeest. Two different animals on different continents with vaguely similar stature, both physical as well as social. There is no doubt that most of the photos are trash but I love the results when a good photo can be created. Maybe I just love that I can shoot to my heart’s content? After all, what photographer isn’t happiest when pressing the shutter? The ethereal quality of a good motion blur breathes life into a still frame. This is one of my favorites from my recent trip to Yellowstone.
