May in Yellowstone (part 1)

I have said it before and I will say it again…May is my favorite month to visit Yellowstone.

Bears (with cubs), wolves (with pups), coyotes (with pups), fox (with kits), badgers (with kits), bison (with calves), birds (of all kinds) and so much more I can’t even imagine how long a complete list would be. I LOVE Yellowstone in May!
