by JLBG

Yellow-headed Blackbird (Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus) is a bird that is normally found only in northern America though a few lost birds have been found in Denmark and in Sweden. At Grand Teton National Park, they look for visitors who might bring them food (forbidden) and as soon as a car parks, they arrive and wait.

	Bear proof garbage cans Tip Rating:

by JLBG

As there are so many bear (though we have not seen any !) the Park has installed bear proof garbage cans. They are made of strong metal and there is no access to the garbage stored in the body of the can : when you open the top, you get a space where you can put your garbage. When you close it, the garbage falls into the body of the garbage can.

The Blackbird (Turdus merula) is found both in Europe and in Northern America. At Grand Teton National Park they fly together with the Yellow-headed Blackbirds but there are not so many : there can be only one for ten Yellow-headed.

	"Hey, whatcha lookin at?" Tip Rating:

As you travel along the park roads, every once in a while you will come across a bunch of cars pulled over and people all staring through binoculars or camera lenses at something. Sometimes it pays to stop and ask them what they see. We saw moose, elk, coyote, a bear ect.... just by stopping and asking. This was the most helpful with moose. Our 1st day in Grand Teton I waited over an hour for a Bull Moose to emerge. When we stopped and asked what the bystanders were looking at,all we could see were the tips of his antlers! Definately worth the wait (I am a huge fan of moose!)
We actually started a pulloff once when we spotted a pronghorn antelope in Yellowstone. Such trendstters!

	SAM 102.9 FM Tip Rating:

We were very excited to find this radio station. We listened to it the entire time we were in Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Idaho and the surrounding area. I think we may have heard the same song played once, otherwise it was always something different. They have a great mix of newer stuff, though not top 40, more "alternative" you might say, as well as some great older songs. They call is AAA, Adult Album Alternative. (When did I start liking "Adult" music..???.) I also enjoyed the weird little plugs from callers such as " My fish really likes your radio station, we play it for him all the time, he's a happy fish."
When we we leaving, we said to each other that one of the things we would really miss, would be listening to this radio station. We don't have anything nearly as good at home where we get the New York City stations! That may be surprising, but it's true.
