"What is life? It is the flash of the firefly in the night. It is the breath of the buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow that runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset." Chief Crowfoot (1830-1890) his last words, Canada
Bison often stand next to hot pools in Yellowstone to warm themselves. Using a long lens allows photographers to get good images without endangering themselves or the animals. Unfortunately, people are injured every year because they ignore the guidelines regarding maintaining appropriate distances from the wildlife. Bison may look like they're slow and sluggish, but they can move very quickly when they want to. Always remember that they're wild animals & animals are unpredictable. They can be quiet and calm one minute and denting the side of your truck the next minute. Enjoy the wildlife when you visit Yellowstone, or any wildlife area, but be safe.

So very true, Carolyn. Too many people today don't get it. They scurry here and there trying to make more money, live in a house that demands all of their free time, and spend hours and hours trying to "succeed in life". They are missing an important ingredient in success in life. Take time to enjoy the small pleasures, nature, family, helping people in need, and thanking God for all of these special gifts, trying to leave them as good or better than you found them. If you do those things, everything in life will be better. Now that is a quote by me! LOL
Very true. Thanks so much for leaving your comments. :-)
