    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.

    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.

    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.
