Moving day, Part 2. I spent the morning waiting for a family to leave so I could move to their campsite. It is a sunny space so my solar panel works much better.

Later, went back down to the Hayden valley to see what was happening there. After watching the wolf, #755, the alpha male of the Wapiti Lake pack - that's the wolf in yesterday's picture, he got a large chunk and left the carcass. Instead of heading north, downstream on the river, to their den, he went east and across the valley to their rendezvous site. This is where they move to when the pups are big enough. I hadn't heard that they had moved, so this may be new information, or at least evidence for the wolf project people.
