Elk2
This norning at coffee I saw some elk coming out of a draw above the house. Binos came out, then spotting scope for a visiting nephew and his wife, then I finally got out a camera.
20 large bulls all in one herd !!

The herd split up. 12 this morning. I don't know how many others, but I only saw one way down by the house. Probably less than 300 yds from the house. The dog started barking when he got a smell and the elk turned and fed away from the house and behind trees from my view.

For those of you who don't know Gussy, he brews some wines extraordinaire!! I am drooling just thinking about them. Those wolves would be cool to hear howl on a crispy morning.........all my clients tell me they are death on the wildlife however.

Re: Elk2
3 coyotes this morning but they hid behind some trees and I didn't get a shot. One brave soul tried chasing a bull elk that had been hanging around the house. It was going well until the bull stopped and faced him. He turned tail and ran... didn't get a shot at him either. But...... the bull had lost his horns and I'm going elk hunting later today, horn hunting that is.

Re: Elk2
Found one shed and I'm pretty sure it was the one the coyote was chasing. The one hanging around by the house had an odd rack and I found the odd side. He never was with the herd I saw.
I can't help but wonder if this guy who was injured a couple years back is the same elk. He was on my lawn for a day and a half, couldn't care less about my Lab. They even touched noses once !!
