Today was the last day of our Big Year Tour in Montana. We finished with 152 species for the trip and the Big Year total is now at 422 species.
We started the day at Giant Springs State Park in Great Falls. 150 million gallons bubble up here and feed the Missouri River every day.

At Giant Springs we had excellent views of Bullocks Orioles down by the Missouri River. Freezeout Lake had lots of waterfowl but not the numbers of Bowdoin NWR a couple days ago. Although the official tour ended with Freezeout Lake, we drove up to Babb. We are staying near the east entrance to Glacier National Park for the tour extension to the Park. It’s a stunning location.
