Wonderful image here Al. I like the pose and the intense look of this fellow.

Great opportunity you had here. I really like badgers, but find them to be very elusive and not very cooperative with photographers. I might consider lightening the eyes just a bit.

Hi Al, I like the detail on his face, and just love images with snow BG's. Well captured.

This is awesome Alfred . What a find !!! Love the pose in this one.

[Carl Gandolfo]

Awesome!! Just goes to prove one needs to be setup and ready to shoot at the drop of a snowball (pun intended) when driving through the Park.

[Mike Robinson]

Wow! I'm impressed. The few shots I got were so poor that I deleted them. If there is enough information present I agree that lightening the eyes or adding a catch light ( I think I can see one but the small size of the image makes it difficult to see) would finish the image.

reminds me so much of our honeybadger - this little fella. nice one sir!
