Thanksgiving Elk

While the turkey cooked, I drove my brother up to Campbell County to see the elk viewing station. We didn't make it - when I drove around a corner of the road leading to it, we discovered a bull and about 20 cows, with two yearlings, passing through.

Fortunately, the rutting season is over and Mr. Bull was cool with us being there, at a respectful distance. Had this been Spetember, I would not have gotten as close as I did - too many male hormones at issue then.

More pictures can be seen here.
