Ok, this is part 2 of our Teton National Park visit. These 2 young marmots peeked out at us late one afternoon while we were out looking for grizzly bears. We slowly drove down the Pilgrim Creek Road, where a cinnamon-colored grizzly had been spotted over the last couple of days. We came to the conclusion that one can spend hours of time searching for something (like a bear) and bypass a delight that is right before your eyes. Thank you, little marmots, for making our drive down Pilgrim Creek a rewarding delight.
Two young marmots peek out from holes within a fallen, mossy tree.
These rascals we’ll call Chip and Dale, peer out most carefully,
Then curiously, the two young pups began to venture out,
And soon they were in full view, and began to move about.
These two plump rascals filled our hearts with joys beyond compare.
These cute wood chuck memories will linger innocent and fair.
What a couple of dumplings!
