Yellow birds, yellow flowers... yellow everywhere! The arrowleaf balsamroot is blooming all over the valley. From Grand Teton National Park to South Park, the hills are alive with color.

We have had some especially beautiful visitors to our feeder! The male western tanager is simply amazing!
The female is more subtle in color, it is interesting seeing the two of them together, you may not think it is the same bird!
