Marmot in its glory [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]
Marmot in its glory
This Olympic Marmot stayed around just long enough for me to get some good shots. Beautiful American Bistort flower meadows such as these are common areas to see Olympic Marmots~August 14,2006~

I have to agree, best marmot shot I've ever seen. You made a marmot look dignified. Who knew?

this is the marmot of all marmot shots. You have to get out there pretty often to catch a shot like this. Good work.

Wish I could think of something new to say about this, but everybody beat me to it. Terrific shot. You and the marmot should be proud.

It's the best one I've seen too;) I was lucky that he stayed around long enough for me to keep taking shots of him.

your marmots are fatter than ours here in California, but just as friendly.
Good job Byron,
Happy shooting great shots,
