Not only that, we got to see more wildlife than almost any other day I can remember. In addition to the wildlife below, we saw, but could not get a good shot at, a Golden Eagle soaring, a small herd of Pronghorn, White Pelicans (though there are a couple in the pictures below), and a chipmunk outside our window at the Jenny Lake Lodge where we had lunch.
Here's why we are so excited:
Juvenile Osprey surveying the scene.
Coyote looking back at the photographer lady.
Really tough shot to get but look carefully. There is a Moose mother and her calf there!
WOLF!
Trumpeter Swan family revisited.Not all that awed us moved. Look at some of the beauty that surrounded us today!
Tetons across the Oxbow.
Tetons across Jackson Lake as seen from the deck at the Jackson Lake Lodge.
Tetons reflected in Jackson Lake - from the Jackson Lake Dam.
Mt. Moran in the morning sun.
Getting closer to the Tetons!
Tetons across Jenny Lake.
The Big Ones. Grand Teton on left and Mt. Owen on right.While MMG was concentrating on the big picture, I looked at some of the little stuff.
Flowers on the deck of the Jackson Lake Lodge.
Flyaway ready emulate its name.Yes, you can go to church in the Grand Teton NP. The church only holds fifty persons, there is no organ or piano, the service very short (we were told).
The Episcopal Church of the Transfiguration.On the upside, this is the view from every pew........
Amen!And we still found time to visit the Moose, WY, post office to check on when the mail is delivered, go to Jackson for shopping (Coldwater Creek, Albertsons Grocery, and Smiths Grocery), and stop by and check out the Gros Ventre (French words that are not pronounceable by Americans) Campground for next time.
I haven't been told what the plan for tomorrow is, but I'll bet it involves picture taking......
Love to all,
MMG and DDG
