Yesterday was an uncommonly beautiful day for April in Yellowstone...the
mercury reached 62 according to my car thermometer, and very little
wind.  Dee and I were the only gazers about.   

Depression  0910  1155ns 
Plume  0957  1052  1147 
Lion  1000  1100   1158     1526 
Daisy  1017 IE  1221 
Castle  0756 min.  1108ns maj. 
Aurum  1109 
Grand  0422E  1420 T1Q  D=13" 
Riverside  1145 
West Triplet  1248 
Oblong  1317   

While Dee and I were strolling past Old Tardy after the Grand eruption,
I looked and saw Indicator in eruption, so dashed on over and caught the
beginning of Beehive--picture attached.   

Beehive  Ind. 1438ie   1444   

Giantess had some nice boils, Infant is very high and murky.  Bison are
migrating to the west, and we now have them along Hwy 191 north of West
Y.  No babies seen yet.  Bluebirds arrived about two weeks ago, and I
saw first swallow near Hebgen Lake today.  No sandhill cranes heard here
yet.  80% chance of rain tomorrow, and temps are predicted to fall to
highs in the 40s and overnight freezes, more like April here.  Have
other obligations so probably won't be back to Park before next Mon.
