This is a very interesting capture indeed and I can't help imagine all the amusing topics they talk about ~ so suggestive image. The paparazzi must be having a heck of a good time admiring the area. These are really magnificent creatures and you've captured them beastifully! #9627044John Connolly August 25, 2011

Pom, when I first saw this, I thought, "Why was Pom in a museum taking photos of the well-lit displays while she was on vacation 'in the wild'?"Laura E. Swan August 27, 2011

Pom, I'm thrilled that that handsome buck (or whatever you call a male long horned sheep)would take time out from munching lichens (or whatever it is long horned sheep eat)to give me the time of day. Or a report on his whereabouts, i.e., in the wild...Chris Ebben August 27, 2011

Great capture, Laura!! #9638709Patricia White August 28, 2011
Isn't it just great when you can get this close to nature.? He sure is giving you the eye. At least he stayed still long enough. Great capture of nature. #9639083Ken Smith August 28, 2011
Reminds me of Yellowstone N.P. You definitely got close...and I like the aqua river in the background! #9639158Laura E. Swan August 28, 2011
Thanks Wm, Shelly, Patricia and Ken!It's always so special to get this close to the wildlife. But it's never safe to walk up to them. I took this one from the inside of the vehicle! You bet your bippy! I was only 10 feet away but still safe in the car. They can charge if they want to and as you can see the human would lose! Lol...
I am respectful always and I even use a slow soothing tone and speak to them, thanking them for allowing me to take their picture! :D True! :))) He really WAS staring at me because I was talking to them at that moment. Ken, our lakes are so beautiful, as you know from your trip here.
Thanks for your great visit and comments!
