p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Mile High Mammals

These are from a very recent visit to Rocky Mountain National Park, my first. All are from Trail Ridge Road, which added to degree of difficulty as I am deathly afraid of heights. The going up and down were the worst of it. But definitely worth the heightened heart rate!

1. A young Bighorn ram with lots of personality -- also prettier than the alpha.

2. The same young Bighorn ram taking time to smell the wildflowers.

3. Yellow-Bellied Marmots sunning on a rock with a stunning view.

4. I called this male Yellow-Bellied Jaba.

5. This Pika looks like (she?) caught the wedding bouquet.

A couple more, off Trail Ridge and just going for cuteness factor.

6. A Golden Mantled Squirrel, along the trail to Alberta Falls.

7. This Golden Mantled was so consumed with his (food?), he didn't mind me getting close with a smallish telephoto.

I appreciate it. I got the shots everyone seems to get, but thought this was a little different. Plus it really does look like a bouquet ...

Thanks, Tim. I didn't know if I was going to make it, but sure am glad I did. I've not been anywhere like it.

BTW, your BG heron (Seattle's official bird) pix are fabulous. I was going to leave a comment, but tired of trying to scroll to the end oF the thread :-)
