Pine Marten in the Snow

Pine marten are one of my favorite subjects to photograph but hard to find! There is one place in Yellowstone however where they are frequently seen and that is by trash cans! I always check the trash cans around popular places and this time I was very lucky to get this marten licking its lips after coming out of one! #naturelovers #wildlifeportrait #wildlifephotography

That lip lick. The best frames come from showing up where the magic isn't supposed to be.
If the pine marten were the size of dogs we would be making horror movies about them! Look at those teeth! It was a cute little moment though! : )
