Yellowstone

  • On the Ledge

    On the Ledge

    The guy walked towards me, paused to glass, walked a bit more, paused again. I waved him in. He shuffled in a bit more, and stopped to glass again. I waved him in more urgently. “This one is a bit skittish, so it’s better if we’re in the same spot to stress it less.” “What
