* wild turkey
* peregrine falcon
* chipmunks
* ground squirrels
* Jack rabbit

* marmots
* family of quail
* pronghorns
* prairie dog (we think)

Was really hoping to see condors, but no luck. Kids want to see a bighorn, but we struck out there too. Gave up on seeing a snake! Couldn't even score a (domesticated) bison, but did pretty well overall!

Wildest of anything we saw was probably our children!! Haha! :-)
