Yellowstone Day 3

Day 3 started looking for the wolves which we were told to be located around the Yellowstone Picnic area. Once located around mid morning, they were on an opposite ridge line approximately 3/4 of a mile away. In an instant, they took off after a herd of elk. It was too distant to photograph, it was very cool to the 16 wolves of the Agate pack chasing down the elk herd. They were not successful and disappeared down the valley. We moved on to search out other opportunities.

I found several good landscape opportunities since the sun was not poking through.



Later in the day, the Agate pack was again sighted and the youngsters spend a few hours chasing these 3 elks. Look to the right of the rock and you will see a large grey wolf.



The evening ended with some good light on the snow covered hills.
