America s national parks are a treasure that everyone who lives in, or visits, the United States should have a chance to enjoy. We recently visited three national parks: Pinnacles, Kings Canyon, and Sequoia. Each has beautiful landscapes and flora; however, another attraction is the diversity of animals, from squirrels to bees to several bears (including a mother and cub!).If you look closely in the top-right photo, you can see a snake hiding under the rock (the squirrel gave a series of warning calls while approaching the snake before/during the photo).Captured on my Olympus E-M10 Mark III (various settings, lenses).
