Yellowstone National Park Buffalo

Posted by admin On November - 7 - 20112 COMMENTS


This short video provides a microscopic slice in the life of a buffalo herd. It was a thrill to watch the behavior of these animals as they interacted with each other. These animals were so accustomed to being watched that they appear to be immune to our presence. It is easy to become complacent but these are anything but domesticated animals.

Bugling Bull Elk in Yellowstone

Posted by admin On November - 4 - 2011ADD COMMENTS


This video of a Rocky Mountain Bull Elk was taken in September in Yellowstone National Park. This bull and his ladies provided the evening entrainment in the Mammoth Hot Springs Campground. His focus was so acute that the RV’s, people, generators, and barking dogs failed to distract him.

Rogue River Black Bear Exhibition

Posted by admin On October - 30 - 2011ADD COMMENTS


This is a Rogue River Black Bear that showed off while we were jet boating with Jerry’s Rogue Jets just out of Gold Beach, Oregon.

Spotting a Black Bear in the wild is rare enough but catching a Black Bear on video is even more rare.  So we were thrilled when this fuzzy fellow showed up on the banks of the Rogue River.
