D90 Tamron 18-270@200mm ISO800 F6.3 SS1/1000
Captured this trio in the Lamar Valley of NE YS.
The calf is only about a month old. Born out of season by about 3 months its chances of surviving the Brutal winter are almost zero. If not the weather the wolves we saw in the area are almost certain to get it.
HAD A GREAT TRIP and should be editing till Christmas at least.
