Description
This guy just stopped by for a late lunch in somebody’s yard. Every part of the country has its own type of critters that hang around. Out here in the west, especially northern Colorado our visitors sometimes get pretty big. Sometimes big enough to reach over the top of the special rabbit and deer fences that are in place to keep the vegetation safe from harm…
Elk or Wapiti is one of the largest species within the deer family in the world roaming through vast areas, from very high elevations to the lowlands. During winter when snow drifts deep in the mountains, these grazing animals have no choice but to migrate downward to where they can get food. When this happens, elk begin gathering together in large herds, remaining in those groups throughout the winter.
Some digital effects were applied to this original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition. Ordered images will not contain the FAA watermark.
