This osprey was hovering above the Yellowstone River in southern Montana, looking for something to catch. Although the picture isn't perfectly focused, I like the bird's pose.

This is probably North America's most common chipmunk species, the least chipmunk, though I'm no expert.

Taken in Yellowstone National Park.

This bald eagle is in the classic pose of an overheated bird. Plumage is a great insulator, but in hot weather it works against you.

I caught some Brewer's blackbirds taking baths in the Yellowstone River.

This one is so plump and comfy as it cools off near the rocks.

I like that they were all looking in the same direction (more or less). Right after this picture, the one on the right derped himself into birdbath mode, looking much less dignified.
