Friendly Little Yellowstone Critters

Our cabin in Yellowstone was surrounded by many of these little creatures, which I think are prairie dogs. They were obviously used to being fed by people because they'd come right up to us, even though we didn't give them anything. They were certainly cute!

    They are cute critters. I love Yellowstone, we stayed in the cabins near Old Faithful. It was great being so close.

    I really must get to Yellowstone some day.
    These cute little guys look a lot like the gophers we have here in Alberta. Ours are officially "Richardson's Ground Squirrel" but we call them gophers.
    Unfortunately, our dog calls them lunch, so it's hard to walk her during gopher season.
    Good shots you got of them.

    So cute!! How could you even stand still to take the pic? I would have been too busy going "Awwwwwwwwww" lol.

    One of my cats likes to stand like this to look out the window. It's cool but no where near as cute! :)

    They are Very cute but also rather obnoxious/overly friendly little beggars.

    hello Al~ i've missed stopping by (was sick, anemia). feeling better now though. have to say i love these little guys. they're so cute. but, i wouldn't have been able to resist feeding them, :)

    the sunset below is gorgeous. and, i can't believe you've had some mountain lion attacks in the last few weeks. be careful~
