Spring is definitely in full swing! The last two days have been particularly exciting for me as I’ve begun heading up into Grand Teton National Park a bit more and the young wildlife has begun springing up! In addition to this black bear cub found near the Signal Mountain Lodge, I also found my first bison calf near the Gros Ventre Campground the day before on my way back from discovering that the same great-horned owl from last year I got shots of is most likely sitting on new eggs. I can only imagine it’s going to get better as more and more offspring are born in the still-to-come wildflowers.
I headed up into Grand Teton National Park this morning for a couple of hours and didn’t find anything much worth capturing. I began heading home and just happened upon a black bear sow with her two two-year-old cubs, one of which is pictured up a tree here. As if that wasn’t sweet enough, I also happened to be the first one to discover them for the day and for a nice, long while, it was just me and two other local photographers getting some great shots of all three of them as they scrounged the ground for nourishment.
Needless to say it was an exciting day with some more sure to come!
