Grand Teton National Park Birds

Aug 7-17, 2007.

While in the Tetons we stayed at two of the National Park Campgrounds: Colter Bay and Gros Ventre. Both are dry camping sites and are rarely full. Both are $17 per-night to "dry camp" with central water and dump site of course if you have the "geezer-pass" the rate will be half that. There are several hundred sites in each of the campgrounds. We spent most of our time in Gros Ventre because it is located only 10-miles north of Jackson and we love Jackson and all it has to offer.

Eagles like this one can be seen throughout the Tetons especially along the Snake River.

This spotted sandpiper is something you might not see unless you are looking for them. They can be spotted along the Snake River and in the Elk Refuge near Jackson.

The white birds are trumpeter swans that were nesting on the Elk Refuge. Actually, several pair of trumpeter swans were nesting on the Elk Refuge this year. This pair had set up house keeping on the back side of the Elk Refuge.

Another pair was visible every day near the Tourist Information Center.

I think this is a sage grouse. Hopefully, one of the hunters will be able to identify it and let me know.
