One of the original farmsteads on the gravel road known as Mormon Row, Grand Teton National Park. Besides the history of early settlement in the valley known as Jackson Hole, it's famous this year for the litter of eight coyote pups living under the foundation of one of the outbuildings. Photographers line up just behind a line drawn by park rangers and train their exotic long lenses on the den opening, sometimes waiting hours for a shot of gamboling pups.
I found it amusing, and was amused at myself as I duly lined up with the rest for a glimpse of tawny fur. At home we shoot coyotes, too. Just not with cameras.
Shootin' the shooters . . .
