p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Canada- More "stoned" sheeps


First pic: On the far right is a mature male stone sheep. Next to him is a not-quite mature male. Then three younger males, probably, because- except for the mating season- males often hang out together.
Females and the young stay together all year.
All of these were also along the edge of the Alaska Highway, near Muncho Lake. And nibbling road salt.
#2 and #3 could be females or young males- I don't remember. At a young age, males are about the same size as mature females, and have horns about the same size. An expert could probably tell the difference by the horns- but I can't.

Thanks Ted, Mark, Jonathan, Rob and Ron.
The facial expression in #2 makes me think the sheep has a sense of humor- sorta smiling at a joke the others missed.

Good images of those sheep that are on that salt lickity split. Until the transports come by at high speeds and one or two ends up as lickity splat.

Great detail in these shots. I agree, the expression in number two makes you wonder what they are up to!

Thanks KCollett. Jim and kmunroe.
True enough: Although there is a reasonable speed limit on the Alcan, the heavy trucks blast down the road getting up momentum for the next hill, and sheep and caribou nibbling salt are at risk; they haven't learned much about speeding vehicles in the last 69 years.

Thanks, guys and doll ().
Somehow my processing seems to be improving a bit.

Very nice shots. Surely these can't be from scanned slides?
