Here is something you don't see every day...
« on: August 29, 2011, 02:18:58 PM »
I forgot all about taking this photo a few months ago in Northern California.  My wife and I were watching these elk and one was chewing a bone for several minutes.  It looks like it might even be from an elk.  Not sure why he would do that.  Munchies maybe?  :drool:

I have not looked into the regs yet but might try to get a tag next year down there.  We saw quite a few big boys.  I spotted this bachelor group napping close to the road so I drove a ways, grabbed the camera and stalked as close as I could without jumping them.
