I've been Buffaloed





I guess the most iconic image of Yellowstone
has to be the buffalo. I have seen some before,
but they have all been in captivity. These were
my first "wild" buffalo. And of course, we were
so excited at the first ones we saw up really close, right
next to road. But they were far from wild....I guess they
are so used to cameras and humans. They barely even
glanced our way, and rambled right in front of the car.
But I have seen the videos of those who chose to get
too close to one of these massive beasts, and I assure
you, I wasn't going to be on the next U-tube must-see
video! I kept my distance, and used my zoom lens.
These are just a couple of my favorite shots.
