Elk Calf, Yellowstone National Park

Photo of an elk calf less that one day old lying along the Madison River in Yellowstone National Park.

An elk calf that is less than a day old rests near its mother along the Madison River  A pair of coyotes was also nearby.  If I could talk to it, I would tell it that it needs to find a better place to hide from predators.

Bighorn Ram, Yellowstone National Park

This is a photo of a bighorn sheep ram on the McMinn Bench at Mount Everts, Yellowstone National Park.

I haven’t been to Yellowstone for several years and planned to go this year until the big flood occurred.  One reason I wanted to go was to get more photos of bighorn sheep.  I don’t have many decent photos of them on my website.  The other day I decided to look through the photos I do have to see if I could find any that I thought were worth putting on my site.  After looking around, I decided to add the photo above and a couple of others.  It was shot in November of 2005 with an 8MP Canon 20D.
