Walk on the Wildside

[DNPhoto]

I just got back from a two week trip to Jasper, Banff and Kootenay National Parks. I was looking for wildlife to photograph. I started in Jasper then made my way south to Banff and Kootenay National Park. In Jasper there were a number of Elk still hanging around from their mating season.

There were also a number of Bighorn Sheep in the area.

Heading down to Banff I came across this Coyote.

My favorite part of the trip was in Kootenay National Park when I came across a number of wolves. This black one was very cool.

Sorry for the long post. It just seemed easier to do it this way. I did make a video travel log of my trip. They aren't the most exciting videos (and they are long) but it does show the blind and setup I was using to get the wolf pictures. Here's the link YouTube - lensslave's Channel
