Peregrine falcons are the fastest animal on the planet, reaching speed of over 200mph when they dive through the air to catch other birds.

YW Photo Naturalist Guide Kyle M. was fortunate enough to capture this moment on tour with his guests. They all watched as the mother falcon swooped out of the nest and came back with a meal for the kids within a minute! She then tore pieces off to feed to each of her four chicks. It’s hard to believe that these little poofs will look like mom and dad in just a few months!

In the ring today, we have two challengers - a 200lb black bear, and a baby lodgepole pine. Only one of them will make it out unscathed. Watch this clip to find out who will snap under the pressure!

How about some waterfall appreciation to break up all the babies?

This is a video of Tower Fall, captured around 8am. The lighting was just right to create a beautiful rainbow in the mist.

June is not only baby season, but waterfall season! With snowfall continuously melting off the mountain, all of our waterfalls look pretty amazing this time of year.

This was YW Lead Naturalist Guide Aleksa B.’s first time seeing a fox den in Yellowstone, and these kits sure didn’t disappoint (how could they?!) Watch as these two tiny siblings go on a short adventure from their home under a tree.

Who’s that trailing behind mom? A moose calf!

These are one of the most elusive ungulate babies to find in Yellowstone, but YW Naturalists Matt D. and Matthew W. had no problem last week! This pair made their way past a nice, wide open pullout last week and made for great viewing from a safe distance.

Have you ever seen a moose calf?

Now is the ultimate time for animal babies in Yellowstone! Get ready for an onslaught of the cutest little guys in the park. Captured just yesterday, this clip shows a mother black bear and her cub playing while far up in the limbs of a tree. They definitely aren’t afraid of heights!

Do you know who made this track? Make your guesses in the comments!

This print was found on a popular trail very close to the road. It serves as a good reminder to always be aware of your surroundings, and to always have your bear spray, even if you think you might not need it!

Now that the way is open to all of Yellowstone’s roadside geyser basins, let’s give you a peek at one of the coolest geysers in the whole park.

This is Great Fountain geyser. Absolutely massive and spectacular, it erupts about twice a day on average in a series of bursts of water that averages 100 feet high. Rarely, you can see a “superburst” of 200 feet or more!

If you’d like to see geysers that are a little less well-known and have hydrothermal knowledge gushing out of your ears, follow the link in our bio to book a Geyser Tour with us!

This is why we love May in Yellowstone so much 🐻

The bears are out in full force lately! Here we have a male grizzly bear that was seen down by Yellowstone Lake. You might take notice of two things in this video.

1- This bear has some jewelry! See those two orange ear tags? That means this bear is known to the park biologists by a research number, and they have collected data on him (genetics, movements, etc).

2- He is eating what most bears are chowing down on right now - grass. In May, green grass and flowers are abundant, and grizzly bears will spend their days eating up to several dozen pounds of vegetation! When you’re always looking to conserve energy, the best food source is one that you don’t have to chase 🌱

Let’s follow this black bear cub on its downward quest!

From the moment they first come out of the den in spring, black bears are geared to climb. When mom wants to protect her cubs from danger, or just make sure they’re in a safe place while she forages, she will send them straight up a tree!

This cub was about 40 feet off the ground, with a sibling in the next tree over. When mom gives the all-clear signal, you can see how this cub uses its short, hooked claws to deftly lower itself into the forest.

Next time you’re looking for bears in Yellowstone, don’t forget to look up!
