<div dir="ltr">Geyser Report Friday, September 25, 2015<br><div><br></div><div>I dodged bison patties from Madison Jct to Fountain Flat this AM. They had been well driven-over before my return. There was more outbound traffic than usual before 0600 on the W Entrance road. Fog was not an issue, and temps were 30-31 degrees. </div><div><br></div><div>The Lower Store closes the restaurant Sunday, a sure sign the season is drawing to a close.</div><div><br></div><div>Overheard at Fountain: "That geyser is called Clydipsia." I kind of like it!</div><div><br></div><div>I have a mental list of things I hope to do in Yellowstone, and I accomplished one this AM. All those road-killed snowshoe hares between Biscuit and Black Sand disappear from the roadway quickly. My plan was to park near one and watch to see what made off with the meal. There were 2 hares this AM. Just as it was getting light, I chose my spot and waited. Two ravens arrived in short order, followed quickly by 4 more, then I was being entertained by a squabbling dozen when I saw in my rearview mirror a coyote crossing the road. He circled around opposite the melee, made his grab, and had breakfast in the edge of the trees 8-10 feet from the roadway. One snowshoe hare gone. I moved to a spot across from the 2nd one and waited a few minutes. The coyote returned for him before the ravens found him over by the curb. Again, the second course was consumed just off the road. I am eager to see my videos (with raven audio) and still shots!</div><div><br></div><div>Fountain: 1038 D=30 (and 3/4) min</div><div>Morning's Thief: 1039, 1042</div><div>Pink 0930ie</div><div><br></div><div>Again, no Gemini as I watched White Dome, Botryoidal, and "Rejuvenated" for an hour and a half. Lots of sun on this AM's fountain, but lots of steam as well, and in an unfavorable direction.</div><div><br></div><div>Barbara Lasseter</div></div>
