Chipmunk taking a bath.
Did you know a chipmunk is an expert at getting it's fur clean and neat for the day? We came home from Helena, Montana and we took the old highway. There's a place on top of a hill, with some huge granite boulders and in those boulders, are some chipmunks. I told Robert we could stop there to see what photos we might find. We got lucky and this chipmunk was sitting on the rocks, taking a good bath. It was a rare treat to watch him as he groomed his little body!
What wildlife do you enjoy watching? Do you watch the big guys? Elk, bear, deer, mountain sheep, or do you enjoy the little things also? For me, I love watching all of them. You learn something new each and every time you watch an animal going about their daily life.

Wild Goose Waltz, Canada Geese
"Wild Goose Waltz"
This Canada goose wants to waltz but he's got no takers! How sad is that?
I like spending time along the Sun River, watching the wildlife that visit the area. I was lucky, the day I took this photo, to see the geese performing on the ice. It was right before sunset, and the glow of the setting sun shone on the ice. I loved the monotone colors in this image.
We have photos and prints for your home in our Wildlife Indoors store.
