Critters

July 21 and 22



We have seen many critters over our time in Banff and Jasper National Parks.  First we saw the bear (highlighted a few posts ago). Then we saw Bighorn Sheep. These particular ones were outside Jasper on the way to Hinton, and the mamas had their babies!

Bart, with his fancy camera, captured this darling little guy!

The big elk that we saw between Jasper and Hinton was an impressive guy, only to be rivaled by one we saw last time that I named the Pool Boy.  Both have 7 points, so I would suggest that they are equally gorgeous, but the Pool Boy was certainly more willing to pose for a photo!

We saw another bear – a grizzly -who just walked out in front of our car – far enough away that we had adequate time to stop.  

Operator error only allowed me to get this short clip of this magnificent grizzly!
Who are you?
