Our Texas friend, Skip, is on vacation in Yellowstone National Park. He sends 
us this report and photo. He's making me envious.

Thanks Skip,
Roger Mayhorn

As my wife and I are on our annual trip to Yellowstone,  I wanted to give you a 
quick update.  The park has recived record snows this season.  Still quite of 
bit of snow in the higher elevations along the divide.  Seeing the usual 
suspects in the wooded areas,  not many ducks on the lakes yet, saw some 
American White Pelicans on Lake Yellowstone today and quite a few Canadian 
Geese and little ones just hatched.    Got a good shot of a Stellar's Jay (see 
attachment), along with some Clark's Nutcrackers.  Been looking at critters and 
not much birding yet.  My checklist is lacking.  Nice and cool here about 70 
today.  Thought you guys might enjoy the Jay picture.
