We have so many great parks in our area that it is amazing that we live in a relatively large city. There is one that is an Elk and Bison reserve. You can get really close to the elk it is great. I spent many a day here as a kid and I was so happy to get to take my son there for the first time today. I am sorry to report there was not a Bison sighting but there was a great deal of other wildlife.

A blue jay who was eyeing our lunch.

A pretty woodpecker.

The elk…

The stare down

We were pretty close…

About 20 feet away–maybe. That’s a baby watching us.

A very happy family.

Uhh…those eyes get me everytime.
