Off in the distance you can see the Yellowstone Beach Fire which started July 18th. This is one of the aircraft used to fight fires in Yellowstone. The Beach Fire burned 520 acres and was 95% contained as of July 28th.
This helicopter was refueling at the West Yellowstone airport and was preparing to go back out to the fire.
Today we had great weather and dragged the grill out for a couple of tasty steaks. Next to our dining room window, a bird has set up nest. No eggs or babys yet. But she sure is sitting in it a lot.
