Yellowstone- Part 4

 Before we even got up, Brandon and Anthony were out taking awesome pics of Elk and other animals.

Our 2nd day was a little drizzly and much more cold.   We were excited to do the Upper Loop this trip!

Then we saw people gathered on a bridge and we saw that they were looking at a Black Bear. Not only did we see the bear, but we got to see him swim !

So very cool! Then we drove to Lamar valley where you can see more wildlife! 

Then Brandon took a turn off so we could see the petrified tree, but instead we not only saw a coyote, but we saw him slow down, crouch, and snatched his prey in a second. Soooo cool to see live.!
 

We also got to see a moose and lots of baby bison.

We also got to see an Osprey nest with babies in it (we originally thought it was an eagles nest)

We got up to Mammoth Springs and it started raining again. Then we saw a bunch of elk playing and running around in the campground right behind our cars!!!
