Driving back from Tri-city's visiting realitives stopped by the Feeding Station.
Weather over white and on the west side sucked, took us 4hrs from Oak Creek to Tacoma.

It was pretty dark with the cloud cover and snow started as we were just leaving.
Kids got a real kick out of seeing them up close.

Fantastic photography as usual. I really enjoy that photo of the two elk on their hind legs playing footsies.

Looks like a domestic dispute to me.

Great pics Elkman!

Very nice pics, once again, those of us tucked up here in the NW really appreciate your efforts. It saves us a lot of time and fuel.

Thanks for the comments guy's.
Haven't been around much lately, everyone has been sick and I have been out trying my hand at bird shooting, like Eagles on the Skagit.
Hope you all have a Great New Year!

I've been thinking about taking my boat up there and shooting for a day, are they very active right now?

Not really, big detour around concrete to get up river, and the power is out from Concrete all the way up.
I had to get gas at marblelount via genarator that was powering the Chevron pumps. The pumps were so slow, 2 of the 3 pumps were putting out 1 gallon every 6 minutes! I got lucky and it only took 13min for 6 gallons on the one I got.
The river is still pretty big, so the fishing for the eagles is bad.
I think we drove through 6 slides to get there where they just punched holes through one lane, but they were working on them on friday.
Good luck.

I could bring a little fire water to keep you warm if you go...

Anyways, I was thinking of going up to the Skagit one of these days too. There is a local photo group that went up last week and had a great time. I guess the eagles were down lower in the river system due to the floods.

Got focal length?
