Buffalo Gap National Grassland

Yesterday, I headed south of Badlands NP, partly to get away from the hordes in the park, and partly because I thought seeing critters and birds might be easier elsewhere. I was particulary hopeful of finding of some Pronghorn antelope. I saw some, but they were well out of camera range.

I did see this mare and foal


I stopped by the little town of Scenic and enjoyed the humor of the lady and rolling pin chasing the man


This immature Horned lark seemed pretty proud of catching a grasshopper.
