Wapiti Wednesday

Wow

I look at the 3rd Brute picture and all I see is a bunch of sentry cows.

Try to sneak up on that herd!

Yeah and that bull is already eyeing another cow for his next tryst.

I would've shot that bull during the second pic.

Brute. Those are some of the best pictures of the elk mating cycle I have ever seen. Congrats. When were they taken and what method did you use to get those fantastic pictures? Are these frames from a movie or are they from a rapid fire still picture camera?

Thanks
They were taken in September 2017.
Used a Nikon D500 10 frames a second. Theses photos are cropped pretty heavy as they were out there a ways.
She really had the bull really wound up. It was one pump and done. All four off the floor 
We watched them till it was dark and he bred another cow while we were there.

Live ones are great, now how about a dead one

Don't know if I've ever posted this bull but he was the bull of my dreams when I held "the tag" two years ago.  Unfortunately, he disappeared from camera in July.
