We have been looking out the car window for days, hoping to see area fauna. This afternoon we saw a bull elk within a couple of miles of Lake Louise, eating grass by the side of the road. We saw a mother mountain goat and her baby twice yesterday, while on the Icefield Parkway. We have also seen a couple of interesting birds (an American magpie and a Stellar's jay), squirrels, and chipmunks. While driving back into Banff from Lake Minnewanka, we saw a nice deer buck too.
