Last week, i took a road i never been on before to avoid a traffic jam.
it was a really nice ride, on a poorly maintained county road.
near my stop, i saw some animals that looked familiar but they were in a place where i have never seen them before.
a herd of tule elk, as i counted 31 strong.
there was one bull and 30 cows
they seemed to be just as shocked at seeing me as i was seeing them.
i had to stop for a few minutes and watch them, even snapped a couple pictures before i moved on
for the wildlife enthusiast,
the tule elk
the first picture was very grainy, taken with an i-phone at about 250 yards
you can just make out what got my attention in the first place, the Bull.
he had an outstanding rack, most likely more than 6 points on a side
after this picture was taken, the herd was well aware of my presence and started to get a little antsy,
they moved to the south, thankfully there was a greater pasture for better pictures
i was able to snap a short video of the herd in action
it was really nice to see these beautiful animals doing what they do.
i hope the herd stays strong.
thanks for looking!
