Daily Nature Fix: A Bird on a Bison - Yellowstone. (Original Photos)
Hello fellow nature enthusiasts. I decided to make tonight's Daily Nature Fix post before dinner, instead of like 3:00am. Around two weeks ago, I posted some photos of a few bison (my favorite native North American land mammal) that we saw in Yellowstone, and everyone seemed to really like them. https://steemit.com/nature/@customnature/daily-nature-fix-bison-in-yellowstone-original-photos That being said, I've decided to share a few more. Like this awesome guy who was wearing a tiny bird as a hat!
I shared this whacky duo around a year and a half ago, but the post went pretty much unnoticed. I'm happy to present them again now that I've accumulated more nature-fan followers. I'm sure this is a somewhat common size when you're hanging out around a herd of bison, but it was the first time we've seen it. I'm sure the bird was picking off bugs or gathering up some nesting material. I snapped a bunch of photos in a hurry, but only a few came out okay. These are some of the better ones.
I didn't even notice there was a bird on his head when I took the photo above. Kylene spotted it as I was putting the camera back away. Like I said, I whipped it back up and started snapping. The bird only stuck around for bout 20 seconds in all.

Oh I'm not a professional at all! I just have a camera and like to take pictures. :) I'll have to check out yours.
so amateur spirit in working affects people more sometimes.) I am following your photographs pleasurably. thanks for visiting my blog.
Bison enchanted, what more beautiful and impressive animals.
Excellent photographs
I probably would not have noticed that bird if you did not mention it as well. Looks like a pretty smart bird to me.
Good customnature
To be a bird on a bison's head.... Happy little guy, I wonder if the bison even notices?
He sure didn't seem to. That, or he just didn't care. I'd be concerned with birds' fondness of shitting all over.
I would like to see them in the wild some day...maybe this summer when Joleen takes me to a wedding in Montana.
