Some wildlife observed from the towpath trail in CVNP.

This weekend snappers were as abundant as Subarus in a Yellowstone Parking lot.

I thought @wsp_scott mentioned an admiration for snakes on one of our past trips (or was it the opposite? ), so I took these for him.

A week ago, we had watched these goats from across the valley, and by the time we looped around an hour later they were right above the trail.

Those snake-squeamish can turn away.

The cat watching a snake instead of a lizard. When we first saw the snake it was stalking one of the younger lizards on the patio.



The colors on this young racer are quite nice actually. Some turquoise shades mixed in with the orange-brown spots, yellows and greens.

It was really fast and spastic. My son caught it, so we could get a photo, and then we released it next door.
