ON THE COVER
While sitting by Jackson Lake at Signal Mountain
Lodge, I heard a group of cedar waxwings fly into a
nearby tree. I saw them gorging on the berries so I
quickly grabbed my camera and snapped a few photos.
Thankfully, this one landed in a good spot and paused
with a berry in its beak before swallowing it whole
and moving on. They were fun, little berry bandits to
watch. Settings used for this photo: Nikon D500, 1/320
sec, f/8, ISO 450. (Photo by Daniel Lindhardt)

ON THE BACKPAGE
Ryan Snell, Wyoming Game and Fish Department game
warden, gives some pointers to a young angler who
attended the Maury Brown Kid's Fishing Day near
Cheyenne on June 3. Each kid who participated received
a fully-stocked tackle box, fishing rod and t-shirt. A total
of 330 people attended the event from all over the state.
Participants got casting lessons, learned how to clean
a fish and had the opportunity to grill their fish on-site.

38 Double duty
Trout and walleye in the same body
of water can be challenging for
biologists, but it can provide a quality
fishery if managed properly.
