Day 9 of the travel photo challenge Su of Zimmerbitch asked me to participate in, no explanation needed for the photo. I’m going with the retro look today for this Yellowstone shot. Today I’m nominating Dan of NoFacilities. Dan, if you’d like to participate, please pingback or link to my post or blog. And have fun.
This, that and the other thing 
Don’t mind me. …. Well done on the retro!
Visiting Yellowstone is still on my to do list – wouldn’t mind meeting “Buffalo Bill” at all. 😀
I hope you make it there. It’s an amazing place. And if you ever do, be sure to stop in Cody, Wyoming near the eastern entrance and see the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, a marvelous museum.
The car looks so small next to the Bison! They are so big!
It WAS small next to the bison. One walked right in front of our van (and others all around it) and they’re enormous! Just imagine what it would have been like in the days when they covered the plains as far as you could see!
Such a mighty creature. I like this photo for the size comparison, Janet. It’s so fortunate that we still have the beautiful bison on earth with us….
I agree, Jet. One of the last times we are in Yellowstone there were quite a lot of bison 🦬 there. That made me happy. Just imagine what it must’ve been like when you could look and as far as you could see the land was filled with them.
Oh, wow! I’ve never seen such a creature in person before and didn’t realize they were quite so big. They’re on par with elephants, I’d say! What an incredible moment in time you’ve captured here.
They’re certainly not as big as a full-grown elephant, but they’re big enough not to mess with!
Talk about a road block! Great shot.
You certainly don’t want to mess with one of those!
Yield 🙂
Definitely!!
Wow: that certainly puts the cows and sheep we sometimes encounter on the roads into perspective.
That it does. 🙂 Another large animal you’d rather not meet on the road (or too close elsewhere) is a moose. While not built like a bison, the males in particular are quite imposing with enormous horns and they can run very fast.
Kangaroos are the bane of drivers’ lives in Australia. My b-i-l had his car written off as a result of a kanga collision
Deer are bad for that here. My parents lost a side mirror on their car some years ago and were fortunate the deer came at the angle it did and didn’t wreck their car entirely.
☹️
What a majestic creature!
Wishing you and yours a blessed and very merry Christmas, Janet! 🙂
Lovely meeting you this year.
Pat

Aww, thank you so much, Janet 🙂
Blessings. xx
My, he’s a beast! And I thought our wild cattle were massive!
Yes, bison are enormous. Not elephant-sized but as close as we get here outside a zoo, I think.
