    Strange brew. The bison, a symbol of American History and the nickle, and a rodent, a symbol of things best not imagined. :D

    Good shots BTW.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I really like the wet bison shot, had he been bathing? But I think your squirrel is in disguise as a chipmunk (or pica). :D

    Yes, that definitely is a chipmunk. Look like the midwestern sorts found in South Dakota.

    I started out in life with nothing, and I've managed to keep most of it.

    Golden Mantle Ground Squirrel
    Looks like it might be a golden mantle ground squirrel. I think they have stripes like that. Or possible a chipmunk.

    That must have been a down-pour, soggy bison. Fun shots.
