Silhouettes of a tourist and American Bison converge at sunset near a viewpoint along the Sage Creek Wilderness road at Badlands National Park |
During the month of May, I was able to take get out often to look for birds, wildflowers and also travel for an extended weekend to the western side of the state. Spring on the prairie is a wonder to behold. New life, spring storms and epic views made for a very photogenic month... And picking just 12 photos to show here was quite difficult. A good problem to work though, in my opinion. As always, click on an image for a larger file to view and thanks for checking in!
