These shots were 3 days in the making. First day I found them with my spotting scope, second day closer to the area with my binoculars and the third day close enough for some long shots with the 500. They are working their way down the ridge to a small meadow for dinner. They won't reach the small meadow until after dark. Very few open areas on the way down the ridge so I used my HoochieMama call to get them to stop.

Nice find. Are they around all winter?

Nope on being here all year. They pass thru early winter and then again in the spring. Going to and from the high country.
As far as winter is concerned its a matter of how much snow we get. The last few years we had below normal snowfall so they stayed close. If we get normal or high snowfall they go South about another 20 miles.
