Animal pictures - RV vacation pictures
Animals
We saw so many animals, reptiles, and other critters on our 8,000 mile summer RV vacation whether we were visiting a national park or not. There definitely is an art to spotting animals, so when someone spots an animal we all say "good sighting". Sorry, squirrels and lizards don't get the infamous "good sighting".
There are plenty of photo opportunities for ravens and squirrels around the concession stand at Hermits Rest, which is at the end of the Grand Canyon's South Rim bus tram.

Jack rabbit snacking on leftovers from picnickers at Lake Amistad National Recreation Area in Del Rio Texas. Ben's careful planning trapped a ground squirrel while camping in Yellowstone and the poor little fella fell for it. When Ben pulled the string for the trap the squirrel didn't care about the carrots and nuts that lured him in the first place, as he was scrambling for an escape. Yellowstone mule deer grazing in a meadow. Click to see Yellowstone bison pictures. Hummingbird at Lake Powell in Utah. Click to see more hummingbird pictures at China Ranch. Mother deer and fawn in the visitor's center parking lot at Zion National Park.
Some pictures were staged and some were not. Obviously, the squirrels coming up to you like a best friend with food is just a natural occurrence. Aiming skill only for taking that picture. The trigger finger had to be quick taking the pictures of the chipmunk that was trapped and eventually escaping. The hummingbird pictures were fairly tortuous to get, though. While taking these pictures Kelly was dubbed "birder" by Ben. One of his four reasons (unfortunately, we can't remember three) for naming Kelly this was something like...any other person wouldn't be putting themselves in those many weird positions, squatting silently still for more than 30 seconds in 100 degree heat.
