A look back on a great gray owl nest I spent a little time with. It was incredible to witness the owls grow, leave the nest, and begin to fly.

Warning graphic content! I know I have shared this video before a couple years ago. Many people got to witness this boar grizzly on the bank of the Yellowstone river consuming an elk that it killed in the river. This was taken towards the end of the whole ordeal as another bear was coming in to try and get a piece to eat. #Natureismetal #tiedtonature #nature #wildlifephotography #naturelovers #gettinout #yellowstonenationalpark #grizzlybear
Crossing Paths
Last week while photographing wolves there were quite a few times that became “iPhone” moments. Sometimes it is ok to step back and just enjoy what you’re seeing.

Wolves Eating
It was a special day in Yellowstone. I had a group that really wanted to see wolves and our perseverance paid off. We were able to see 9 different wolves today. Not to mention we saw 6 foxes, 4 coyotes, and a couple large herds of bison. #winterinyellowstone #winterwonderland #wolves See Yellowstone #yellowstonenationalpark #zeiss Phone Skope
Wapiti Lake Pack
Seeing 20 wolves together at one time is always incredible! This was not my first time seeing this many and I am sure it wont be the last.
Wapiti Lake Pack in Yellowstone National Park. Sorry there is no sound wind was howling pretty good.

Howling Wolf.
Day 16, today is a drive up to the airport to drop everyone off then head home.
I want to thank @don_toothaker and @huntsphotovideo for giving me the opportunity to guide these trips every year. I look forward to next year. Thanks to @yellowstone_adventures1990 (Brock Wilson) for being our snow coach driver he has been great to work with.
This short video was taken hand held from the window of the coach. We had hoped to pull into this pull out so we could view the wolves but this wolf decided it also wanted to use the pullout. After this video was taken we drove on to the next pullout to get out at a safe distance to view/photograph the wolves.

Otter and Coyote
Day 7, we had the most incredible otter/coyote encounter I have ever seen today. So many photos and videos I thought I would just share a sample video of what we watched today.
Beyond the time we spent with the otters and coyotes we had a few nice bison walking down the road. We also found the same fox from yesterday and we spent some time photographing it as it was mousing.
As a bonus today we photographed a Bald Eagle, Downey Woodpecker, and some Clarks Nutcracker’s.

Bison on the Move
One of the great parts about winter in Yellowstone is the bison moving down the roads. Due to the deep snow the bison will often travel the roadways to avoid the deep snow. #tiedtonature #wildlifephotography #yellowstonenationalpark #wildlife #winterinyellowstone
2024 Favorites!
A compilation of favorite photos and moments from 2024!
My brother mentioned to me the other day that every time I visit Yellowstone I mention it was a “great day to be in Yellowstone”. My response was isn’t it great I can say that about where I work.
It was a great day to be in Yellowstone, lots of bison, eagles, waterfowl, a couple coyotes, and a lone wolf howling.
Iced Sawn
Unique sighting in Yellowstone today. On tour we noticed this swan with an ice block frozen to its wing. Less than 20 yards off there was a coyote sleeping. On our way back by later the swan was free of the ice and the coyote was awake close to where we last saw the swan. Everyday is an adventure in Yellowstone. See Yellowstone
Trying to tie a few more people to tied nature, for those that don't get out, can't get out, or can never get enough!
