There may still be snow in the high country in Utah but down in the Salt Lake Valley things have begun to green up and I am already seeing the first wildflowers blooming.<\/p>\n

These Pronghorn images were taken a few years ago during the spring and I thought I would share them this morning partly because the yellow flowers in these images; Gray’s Biscuitroot (Lomatium grayi<\/em>), have just started to bloom this year.<\/p>\n

It is wonderful to see the Pronghorn and Bison feeding on fresh, young shoots again after our long, cold and very snowy winter. I saw some Pronghorn yesterday and they; along with the Gray’s Biscuitroot, reminded me of these images.<\/p>\n

It won’t be long before the Pronghorn<\/span><\/a> does give birth to their young and they are about the cutest little critters in Utah in my opinion.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
