2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Yellow Bellied Mermot, Grand Tetons National Park, United States of America
The Relaxing Mermot

Species: Yellow Bellied Mermot | Location: Grand Tetons National Park, United States of America

We were enjoying a walk in the Grand Tetons when we saw this guy playing around. After playing for a minutes, he decided to take a break. I had never seen this animal, so I found it fascinating. I was so glad he decided to take a break. Fortunately after taking the shot we ran into a ranger who told us what it was.
