Why did the Bison Cross the Road?



We started the day with a beautiful drive and a hike that had a bit of everything…
From beautiful meadows and lakes,


to more sulfur pots and geysers,


to the beautiful Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.




After our hike we encountered a large group of bison – some very near the road.   We decided to sit at the pull off and have a cold drink (diet dr. pepper of course) and a snack and watch the buffalo.   To our surprise the park rangers worked to move the buffalo that were so near the road away – and we were witness to a large group of buffalo (20 to 30) stampeding across the road not so far from where we were parked.  Unfortunately we pretty much missed the picture of this.

A short while later a lone bison decided to come cross the road in the other direction.  Why – to be photographed by Kevin and Karla of course…
