Daisy's Four-Star Day

On the Mill B trail north of Strawberry Reservoir, Daisy had a perfect day. 
What's more ideal than swimming in an algae filled water trough,
sitting one's muddy self in a damp patch of marsh marigolds,
digging for rodents,
smelling lots of elk, (Can you see Daisy lifting her head to see  and smell above the sage?)
spotting a trickster coyote,
and giving it a merry chase.  Fortunately, she did not come close to catching it.
Yes,  Daisy gave the day 4 stars.  Her people  did, too.

  2. What an exciting day you and Daisy had on the trails. She had a good chase after Wile E coyote.

  3. Nice coat on the coyote. I saw a pack of coyotes the other day that looked very thin compared to the one pictured.

    Daisy looks happy sitting on the marsh marigolds!

  9. Daisy is quite the entertainer. (Didn't the coyote know she just wanted to "play?")

  21. Interesting, relatively few calves to cows in that elk herd? Are there a lot of black bears in the area (primary calf predator)?
