On the 9th, we migrated to Banff! Moved our home to Tunnel Mountain Trailer Court, the national park campground with hook-ups.
On the 10th, I took the doggies out to pee to the sound of elk bugling!
And then we met up with Jason, Diana (pronounced Dee-ana, by the way), and Gabo just east of Banff. We all bundled into their beautiful big new truck for a perfect weather day, a day of guided sightseeing through a scenic set of provincial parks called Kananaskis Country. And we could have no better tour guide, no more expert interpretor, than Jason, as he grew up in the area, and Kananaskis was their most frequent vacation destination. D & Gabo pose in front of a very pretty lake.
Nuestra familia nueva!
Then the three of them took turns trying to convince these gray jays to take food from their mouths! This looks like a missed approach!
And you can tell by his facial expression that Gabo wasn't too sure this was a safe thing to do!
This jay had obviously already scored, but he was still considering that other raisin in D's mouth!
Jason, who started the whole jay-feeding extravaganza, had them stealing raisins from his hand, arm, mouth, and top of his head!
This was a great practice session for using my continuous shooting mode and fast shutter speeds!
These birds were very cooperative - as were the raisin holders!
Now here's a good mom-son team, don't you think?!
And the Three Musketeers? Or dare I say it, the Three Stooges?! Nah! Just kidding! They're a cute bunch though, aren't they?
