Jousting Bison in the Campground at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I was glad that I was sleeping in my RV, and not in a tent like the folks across from my campsite. Image taken with a Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm lens (ISO 900, 105 mm, f/5.3, 1/60 sec).
Lots of wildlife on the side of the highway. A mother black bear and her two cubs, a red fox, and bison. I didn’t realize that bison lived in forests?
Bison Bulls Fighting. My first night sleeping in the RV in a campground at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. These two Bison Bulls were having an argument just outside my site. I was glad that I would sleeping in the RV, and not in a tent like the family just across the road.
Upon arrival in Jackson, the ANPAT participants were split into four groups, each with their own van (with a volunteer driver and navigator). Each van had ~8 photographers fully loaded with gear. The space in the van was tight, and I felt like I was sitting in a narrow commuter jet. The vans had schedules to go to different locations so as not to get in each other’s way… Our van did a lot of Bison hunting while traveling through Yellowstone National Park. The first image of one of our Bison hunters, and the second a shy Bison trying to hide behind some grass.
