Hi All,
Another busy day on Moose Wilson Rd. with lots of bears. Several remained in berry bushes close to the road to give great views for visitors.
These two finally had to be chased off the road so they would not develop bad habits.
Hi All,
After two fun days in Cody, we were back patrolling Moose-Wilson Rd today. The day passes very quickly with lots of wildlife.
In the moose department we had two cows with calves and two other single cows. One was very close to the road and caused a huge traffic jam.
We had a grizzly bear run across the highway and two black bears saunter across the road plus another that stayed up on the hillside.
This is bear#130, 15 feet up in a stout berry bush eating the berries she could not reach from the ground. She spent two hours in this spot!
Hi All,
We are spending a couple of days in Cody, WY, primarily to visit the Buffalo Bill Cody Museum. This place is a fascinating combination of five different themes.
The life of William Cody is depicted from his time driving freight wagons for $50 a month, through his time as a buffalo hunter providing meat for railroad workers at $500 a month to his famous Wild West show that toured the world.
The entrance has this interesting video projected from behind on a screen of smoke blowing in from the side.
Hi All,
Our day began with a bear in a tall berry bush along the road.

Hi All,
We have spent most of the last two days on Moose Wilson Rd with two bears who must love having their pictures taken.
This one was near or crossing the road most of the day. Wildlife Brigade members spent a total of 20 staff hours watching this guy on Sunday alone!
Hi All,
We slept late this morning then went for a short hike to the Moose Ponds near the south end of Jenny Lake.
Here's one of the ponds. There is a beaver lodge on the far shore.
Hi All,
Today was a typical Thursday, chores, shopping & Internet.
After dinner we went on a wildlife drive. Two miles from the campground we saw a beautiful bull moose with bare antlers. The velvet had been scraped off on preparation for the rut.
We then drove up Teton Park Road looking for Elk.
First we saw this interesting sunset cloud formation around Grand Teton.
