Good Karma Bighorns

DSC_8289 Coming back from Big Sky on Sunday afternoon, I came across a small bachelor herd of Bighorn Sheep rams. Within the herd, there were two full-curl rams, one of which was very cooperative. It was a really treat to take image after image of this ram as he pawed through the snow to eat grasses that have long since given up most of their nutritional value, which is close of cardboard. Ultimate survivors are these creatures. When the deer and elk have traveled to lower elevations, the bighorns are pawing through the snow.
