That's No Elk!

Its a Big Horn Ram! Nancy and I were on the spur trail from Hidden Lake above Logan Pass when we met two guys from Germany. They were all excited. They told us about a big elk sleeping next to the trail. Knowing how skittish elk are, I checked my camera. I knew I would only have time for a shot or two. Turns out it was a big horn Ram, not an elk. Even better!! I set up the tripod and starting shooting when a mountain goat and her baby walked out of the brush and into the picture. We couldn't believe our luck!. Here are the photos.

Boy this is the life!!
Good food & solitude.
Nothing like fresh flowers!
Say, I see Mr. Ram
over there.
Lets go visit.
"Oh No! Here comes Mrs. Goat
and her Kid!"
...................................
Not too close son!
You know
how grumpy
Mr. Ram can get!
But Ma,
The plants are
greener over there!
Hey,
Your Kid is
eating my
favorite Plants!
