I knew that these two bulls were in the area. I got to the pullout early, shut the car off, and decided to sit on the hood and wait. The fog was thick and wet, and the visibility was poor. No wind and if I concentrated hard enough, I could hear my hart beat. 

I do not know how long I waited…when they showed up, it did not matter. The large bull led the way, not in the hurry, but with a measure of intent. His eyes, and nothing else, showed caution as he passed me. ..that pleased me, as I also know what it means to be around some humans who are difficult to trust. Yellowstone.
