The elk have arrived!

So last spring when we walked the property with our landlord there was the remains of an elk carcass. In the summer the elk herds migrate up in elevation to the mountains and higher range. Well, after the heavy snow we had a while ago.....(by the way....it's mostly gone after a week of 50 degree temps!) I expected to start seeing them. Well they have finally made their way to the valley floor. A herd of about 20-30 elk are bedding down in the field directly across from us. They were not real close, but I did snap a few pics.
