Big Elk Redux

Here's one more of the big elk and some of his herd from this past weekend.

The big guy with part of his "harem." He was very effective and keeping them in line; he obviously is a male chauvinist, but not a pig.

As a deer that panteth. . .

I shot this guy on a photo workshop last weekend up in Rocky Mountain National Park. He was one of the bigger elk bulls I've seen and he seemed king of the 'hood. There was another bull who emerged from a tree line about a mile away from this guy. He bugled once or twice which drew my subject's attention so he turned from here and mosyed over. The second, younger bull soon took off for the other side of a road that was behind me. He wanted nothing to do with a fight.
