Great pics Bone.

I'm in the process of sorting through my 170 Sheep photos from today (this will be the last time I shoot in RAW only).

Here is another batch for you fellows.  JDB and I went for a foray in the desert, and didn't find any bucks to shoot, but on the way home, took the canyon and after spotting a pile of ewes, this guy jumped out at us.  He is one of the better rams that I have seen in the canyon, at least in regards to mass.

That's not fair that they were standing right along the river for you.  :chuckle: I had to shoot them from far away.  :'(

Are those pics cropped? I was shooting with my 400mm lens also, but when I try and crop mine, they get all grainy....

Yes they are cropped.   Thats one advantage of a big lens.

I think this one was uncropped.   I was shooting a 400mm with a 1.4 doubler and with my crop factor, thats about 800mm or so.

I was going to title the above one sheep country.  Unreal how easy it was for him to get across that.  He only slipped once.  I would have slipped all the way to my death. 

Thanks antlershed.  Post them anyway.  I have been looking forward to them.

This one is for JDB.   I wanted him to compare how far away they were.....a long ways..... to the picture in bright light.

Hey Doug did you check out the sheep by Entiat this last weekend? I was comming back from Twisp and heard they had the signs out warning people they were on the roadway!!

They have had those signs out for a couple now.  What I hate is the one that says you cannot pull off to the side of the road.  Not sure if that makes it illegal or not.  Just happened to find some when Lil and I came through that were next to a parking spot. :)

Not very many Blessed.  I think they are waiting for the water to drop back down.  Its running clear again, but higher than normal.  I even ahd the thought that I needed to call Jackelope and tell him to get over here bcauase there was no one on the river.

Spent yesterday morning climbing around clemans, but didn;t get any good shots.  Saw a couple bands of ladies and smaller rams.  The two rams that I found were quite skiddish.   I suppose someone had been hunting them.
