Snipe - Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson Hole, WY

Snipe Hunt

By Spring Creek Ranch on April 5, 2010

The “snipe hunt” has been a traditional practical joke on inexperienced campers and consequently has led to many thinking that a snipe is a fictional animal. It is very real but heard more often than seen so this snipe out in broad daylight was exciting to observe on today's safari. April is a wonderful... Read More.

The Sound of Pine Forests

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 15, 2010

In the evergreen forests of North America the chattering of a red squirrel is a frequent presence to any outing. Our squirrels are active year-round, but have shown increased enthusiasm in the past couple weeks as Spring quickly approaches. Interesting sightings lately have included a porcupine, mountain goats and my first sighting of a... Read More.

Long-billed Curlew and Much More

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 7, 2010

In the past few days we have literally seen thousands of animals on our safaris. Many of these were elk and bison migrating North, but we also were able to see many moose, deer, bighorn sheep and bison. This morning we had a nice view of a newborn bison which looked absolutely tiny next to its mother.... Read More.

Spring is coming to Jackson Hole

By Spring Creek Ranch on April 8, 2009

We had several more “firsts” of Spring on yesterday’s safari including our first sighting of sandhill cranes, northern harriers, uinta ground squirrels and yellow-bellied marmots (pictured right). The marmots and ground squirrels are exciting to see this time of year since they have been tucked away in deep hibernation for several months. We watched... Read More.

Big Horn Sheep - Spring Creek Ranch, Jackson Hole, WY

Bighorn Sheep Winter in Jackson

By Spring Creek Ranch on March 25, 2009

Our local bighorn sheep herd came very close during this morning’s safari and I (mistakenly) thought that this was going to be the highlight of today’s excursion. We ended up seeing some fascinating coyote behavior throughout the morning including a pack of coyotes chase a mule deer at full sprint. We didn’t see the... Read More.
