Moose and Elk on the Move in Jackson Hole, WY - Spring Creek Ranch

Ground squirrels have finally emerged from their long hibernation, migratory birds such as bluebirds, cranes, red-tail and Swainson’s Hawks have returned and the large hoofed mammals are on the move toward their...

Moose & Spruce

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 31, 2013

Lots of moose activity has been seen on recent safaris and this moose was particularly entertaining to watch as it eagerly browsed on a spruce tree. Spruce are probably not a moose’s favorite food, but long Winters limit available forage and require them to diversify their diet. Moose are often the highlight of a... Read More.

Great Gray Owl - Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson, WY

Great Sightings of Great Grays

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 16, 2011

The snowy weather throughout today seemed to contradict some of the Spring wildlife sightings that were taking place at the same time. Mountain bluebirds have made their return along with red-winged blackbirds and the largest bull elk have dropped the antlers that they worked so hard to grow last year. Each Spring, we hope...

Winter Storm & Moose

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 6, 2011

Today’s excursion was a classic winter wildlife safari here in Jackson Hole with sightings of bighorn sheep, many bald eagles, coyotes, mule deer and thousands of elk. Our local wildlife is very well equipped to deal with snowy days such as today, as this moose photograph suggests. The snow landing on the fur of... Read More.

Raccoon - Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson Hole, WY

Masked Mammal

By Spring Creek Ranch on December 1, 2010

Raccoons are not extremely common here in Jackson Hole so I was surprised to see this handsome critter in my yard the other night. Most trash containers in this area are bear-proof, so it wasn’t able to cause any trouble for us. Winter has arrived in full force and wildlife watching has been great.... Read More.

Deer - Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson Hole, WY

Deer X 4

By Spring Creek Ranch on April 2, 2010

Today’s safari observed a very unusual combination of sightings which included four species within the Cervidae (deer) family here in Jackson Hole. The rarest deer found here is the white-tailed deer (seen commonly in the east) so after spotting this large ungulate along the eastern border of Grand Teton National Park, we were especially...

Naked Bull Moose

By Spring Creek Ranch on February 2, 2010

Once bull moose shed their antlers, they always look a little like they aren’t wearing clothes anymore (or like a female moose.) Almost all of the bull moose have shed their antlers, but there are one or two small bulls that are still carrying their mini-antlers around proudly. This image was taken on yesterday’s...

A Visit from Mildred – A Jackson Hole Local

By Spring Creek Ranch on January 27, 2010

Kathi Davis Captures Her Nosy Neighbor While enjoying my cup of coffee this morning my neighbor Mildred (see right) stopped over to say hi! Mildred can be a little intrusive, just coming up on the porch and peering through the windows, she knows she is always welcome. Although human food isn’t on her diet,... Read More.
