I bet they really wish some more water would enter their ecosystem right now. Where is the rain?!?!

that's for sure. But I was surprised to find this pothole still with a lot of water out there.

It is amazing how long water can last in our ephemeral pools. I imagine it is well ingrained within the minds of the frogs where these longest lasting ones are. Or they can somehow sense them.

My count got up to 9 bears at just the falls, likely a few more downstream last night. Twas a blast to see so many and recognize them.

Lone wolf tracks on top of our bike tracks from the night before as we rolled back to camp for the night in Montana.

I kind of wish we would have seen the wolf...from a distance. I did hear it around 1:30AM.

Whereabouts in Montana? I was camped a week or so ago near the Crazies and heard a couple far in the distance late at night. I know there are several packs in that area.

My sunrise companion at Cedar Breaks National Monument. In the first shot it is rolling and tumbling like an idiot.

We were camped between Elk Lake and Hidden Lake closer to Hidden Lake. They are off the Continental Divide bike route, close to the Idaho/Montana border.

Oooooooooh so adorable!

they are, but they can be pretty fast as well
Usually I'm a wildlife repellant and everything is running or hiding when I approach. But this one was just too comfortable on the cliff

Someone previously had some sweet beetle shots.
This emerald colored beetle was nice.

Cheeky marmot...looking to still my breakfast.

He snuck up while I was looking at photos on my phone. He was close enough I could have reached out and pet him. Didn't want to...but I could have.

This beauty was most tolerant this evening while I futzed with the camera trying to get a decent shot.
