It was snowing at Old Faithful when I arrived this AM, and more

Castle had a minor overnight then major at 0758ie
Daisy 0644
Till was finishing a major at 0712ie
White dome from the loop road ie at 0827

I saw Little Brother ie at 0730 and 0813

Lynn Stephens is in for a quick visit and reported Fountain at 2030
last night and again at 0542 this AM for a 9hr, 12min interval.

I saw a black bear in the distance near Nez Perce and both a brown and
a white snowshoe hare together beside the loop road between Biscuit
and Black Sand.

An eagle just E of the nest was flying North across the bank on the
far side of the  Madison, carrying a big load of sticks.

While the bison calves are adorable, they don't yet seem to be all
that numerous.  Hazing of bison back into the park from West
Yellowstone area begins next week.
