A pronghorn buck stands in a field of sagebrush in Grand Teton National Park.
In this shot, it was a little later and he had moved across the road putting the forest behind him. I like his pose and while I could probably take out the stick that points to his foreleg, I don't feel it upsets the composition enough to justify the work. It would also break the PSA nature and wildlife competition rules.
This handsome bull elk was foraging in the woods with his harem. They were between the road and Yellowstone Lake conveniently at a pullout so it was easy to stay in the car and shoot through the open window.
First time back in Yellowstone NP since 1958. We arrived at West Yellowstone the night before they rolled up the streets in October. This was shot the next day along the Madison River.
Actually shot in August, this White-Crowned Sparrow was perched on the seed head of a spent Lupine.
Stepping out onto our Lanai, I spotted this little fellow chowing down on the fruit that the geckos were enjoying the day before. Popular spot.
While walking along the main street in Kona, we saw a number of these very bright and pretty finches flitting about. Such wonderful color.
A Gecko licks the juice from flowers of a palm tree. They seem to have a well-adapted tongue that you might see after you get past the colorful patterns on its back and those fantastic blue rimmed eyes.

While stalking the elusive Lazuli Bunting a flight of three Cedar Waxwings settled into a bramble beside the Orting Trail. This is just south of the village of South Prairie, in Washington State.
