Bison at Sunset, Badlands National Park, South Dakota
Here’s another one from this past weekend at Badlands National Park. People know the Badlands for the sweeping landscape of eroded buttes, but the area is also great for wildlife, thanks to one of the largest expanses of mixed grass prairie in the country. Bison are very common, especially in the northern section of the park which is largely rolling hills. This guy was grazing a bit away from the rest of the herd allowing a nice portrait beneath the setting sun.
