This ram was an easier shot. During the winter rut, they frequent the North Fork of the Shoshone River along the highway between Cody Wyoming and Yellowstone National Park. They are somewhat used to people and traffic, and often give you plenty of time to set up your tripod while they just relax and watch. During the right time of the rut they are more aggessive, fighting other males that get too near their harem. I’m going back this weekend, hoping for some action shots.

You may recall my journal and the photo Time For You To Back Off that this ewe and I have a history together. This shot was taken almost 2 years ago to the day. Similar situation – I was photographing a herd of bighorns from what I thought was a safe distance, and this female didn’t like me anywhere near her baby. She came trotting down the side of the slope to let me know personally. Not much of a warning or signs of agitation – just a quick confrontation. Mt Evans Wilderness Area

It looks like the majority of the shedding for the mountain goats is complete – just after a big snow up high. It won’t be long now until winter returns to the high country. That white spot you can see in his eye is a mound of snow. In the full frame version, viewed at pixel level, you can see the entire scene reflected in his eye!

An immature ram came right up to pose. Bighorn Sheep are named for the large, curved horns borne by the males, or rams. Females, or ewes, also have horns, but they are short with only a slight curvature. Featured in the group Eye Contact (animals only), Christmas 2009 Olympus e-510

A beautiful bighorn ram lounging on the cliffs above Two Jack Lake in Banff National Park. The beautiful aqua blue water of the lake provided such an unusual background for these animals, I took way more pictures than I realized until I uploaded them, even with the dog barking and losing her nut at the time over the big animals. Shot with my Canon Rebel XT and 55-250 IS zoom lens.

Bighorn Ewe in Estes Park, Colorado. My friend Shiloh and I came upon 21 of them in a herd the other day at the outskirts of town….watching them was so entertaining….and those faces!!! They gaze right into your eyes with this oh-so-serious look and you can just feel that smile about to break forth…. Smile

Bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) occur in several places around the state of Wyoming, and sometimes they are quite fearless about grazing near or searching for salt on roadways. Canon 40D, Canon 100-400 IS lens, Sinks Canyon State Park (Lander, Wyoming). Speed 1/400, f9, focal length 400mm.

One day last week as we were driving up the Big Thompson Canyon into the little community of Drake, we came upon a small group of Bighorn Sheep grazing on any new sprigs of green grass they could find. We pulled over and watched them for a few minutes and I took quite a few shots. This one gave me a big smile. To me, it appears that the Ram on the right is telling a story and the other one is saying to himself, ‘yeah, yeah, I’ve heard this one a million times…’ :-)

The Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming are a mere 8.5 hours from my front doorstep and I had no idea these mountains were here for the past 40 years of my life! Everyone talks about the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, or the Grand Tetons in western Wyoming… but here, just between Yellowstone National Park and The Black Hills of South Dakota - in the central and northern part of Wyoming is one of the most beautiful places on earth that I’ve ever seen. In between rain showers we saw all kinds of wildlife and wildflowers. Mountain streams, lakes, trails and the spectacular geography - rock formations billions of years old—snow capped granite, lupine meadows, towering pines… it was breath taking. Included at the side are samples of wildlife images which were viewed in the park but at too great a distance (and too dark or rainy) to post for sale.

We spent several hours driving and hiking the many trails in the Bighorn Mountains. This was the first “wildlife” we saw when we turned off Highway 16. This marmot was ducking in and out of his hole several times trying to decide if he wanted to look at us or hide from us. He finally climbed up on top of his rocks as if to get a better view of us. When we saw the first one we thought “Wow aren’t we lucky to get to see one of these guys!” Then we looked all up and down the rocky hillside and they were scampering in and out of holes everywhere! Delightful little creatures and seemingly very curious.

Acrylic on gallery wrapped stretched canvas. 20”w x 16”h. When I was young I lived in New Mexico and now I live in West Texas. When you live in West Texas, you are right next door to New Mexico and it is the place you go to vacation. There are many beautiful paintings of big horn sheep in the galleries of Santa Fe and Taos New Mexico. In the past I have studied the art of those galleries to learn and to be inspired. I have never been able to emulate the art I have seen in those galleries —I have found that the only art I can do is my own. This painting is my version of the ancient petroglyphs of the Southwest combined with the influences of the art I absorbed in the galleries of New Mexico. 528 views 12/12/09 The original painting was sold in 2009

Nikon D90 / Nikkor 70-300mm lens / f/5.6 / 1/250 second exposure time / ISO 400 Bighorn Sheep just outside of Golden, British Columbia. I walked to about 30 feet away and then got “the look” from this guy so decided I was close enough! Bighorn Sheep are named for the large, curved horns borne by the males, or rams. Females, or ewes, also have horns, but they are short with only a slight curvature. They range in color from light brown to grayish or dark, chocolate brown, with a white rump and lining on the back of all four legs. Males typically weigh 127-316 lb (58–143 kg), are 36-41 in (90–105 cm) tall at the shoulder, and 69-79 in (176–200 cm) long from the nose to the tail. Females typically are 75-188 lb (34–85 kg), 30-36 in (75–90 cm) tall and 54-67 in (138–171 cm) long.[14] Bighorns from the Rocky Mountains are relatively large, with males that occasionally exceed 500 lb (230 kg) and females that exceed 200 lb (90 kg). In contrast, Sierra Nevada Bighorn males weigh up to only 200 lb (90 kg) and females to 140 lb (60 kg). Males’ horns can weigh up to 30 lb (14 kg), as much as the rest of the bones in the male’s body.
