The Tallgrass Bison

There was something pretty amazing about seeing a herd of Bison roam and graze freely. This herd is part of an experimental trial to see how they help restore the prairie land and prairie bird populations being monitored at the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie. I was lucky enough to have the herd close to a fence (they have over 700 open acres to roam) to see and photograph them. Like stepping back in time.
