Photo Trip Advice

My wife and I have the opportunity to spend 5 days somewhere in early June. We love to photograph wildlife, especially birds, and sometimes scenery to a lesser degree (or not at all).

So, help us decide...where to go if you have 5 days?

So far we are considering:

Rocky Mountain National Park (would be our second trip there)
Anhinga Trail
St Augustine Alligator Farm

I wonder about Florida in June...I HATE mosquitos!

Any help appreciated.

I would vote for Yellowstone NP

I'm with Grace on this one, I'd vote for Yellowstone Natl. Park for wildlife photography - it's non-stop action with as much variety as you can get. I love RMNP, used to live near it, so you'll get to photograph elk, deer, coyotes, marmots, and birds, but in Yellowstone, you'll also likely see pronghorn, buffalo, bears, wolves, sandhill cranes, swans, and all kinds of other wildlife and birds.

We once went to Yellowstone the first week of June, and it was still winter there, mostly. I think mid June would be much better. Don't forget that most of the place is at 8,000 ft. There were lots of birds though. On the plus side, the waterfalls were running great and there weren't all that many screaming kids running around yet.


Kent in SD

Yellowstone -YES!!!
babies out too

Rocky Mountain National Park (would be our second trip there)

St Augustine Alligator Farm (April, May prime, but June good)

yoo late for Anhinga Trail (Jan - March GREAT, even April)
Mosquitos horrific in May onward
