Hoary Marmot, Mount Rainier, WashingtonContinuing with the animal collective names series, here is my favorite marmot shot. Had this individual been with two others, it would be correct to call it a madness of marmots. This image has been posted before but was worth a second look. Captured in the alpine tundra of Mount Rainier National Park.
