Mt Rainier and Elk
« on: February 11, 2009, 06:57:22 PM »
This was the scene tonight when I got home from work. These Elk were a little over 1/4 mile from my property in the neighbors pasture. They have been out in the morning the last two days and I finally had a chance to grab the camera and go down and shoot em.

You got that right. I have seen herds 50+ strong in this field. I usually drive off the road those days and my neck gets real sore.

I'll keep my eyes open. I have a 30 mile drive to work so I see a bit every day. Actually now that I think about it there are a couple parcels for sale just down from me. I believe they are either 10 or 20's. There is also a 14 acre parcel that is right near where I took those pics and it has a Mtn view. Pricey though.

Great View :tup:
