Livin’ On The Edge Mt Evans, Colorado 14,240 feet high, and here were these Mountain Goats standing right on the edge…...quite a long ways down I might add. The Mother was NOT real pleased with me by any means, well, more with my German Shepherd Klaus, but almost took out her frustrations on yours truly. Her young found me quite curious as I stood in the middle of the road, outside of the car snapping this, and started approaching me. He was maybe only 10 feet away and slowly started getting closer, when all the sudden my dog happened to realize from the back seat what was going on, and went complete ape. I am guessing he must have thought baby Mountain Goat was a threat to me. About that time, Mom came running over and put herself between me and her young, staring at me, deciding what to do. Well needless to say I backed up slowly behind the car and Klaus by this time was none thrilled at all, I think if she would have charged, my dog would have gone through the glass lol However on the flip side, he did get their attention which made some for some pretty dramatic images Minolta 5D / Minolta 75-300 D Lens

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!

This was one of six kids playing around at 14,000ft. They were all so spunky and rambunctious that it was difficult to isolate any of them for a shot. From a distance, their eyes have a liquidy black color, but in the sun they show a rich, warm amber color that’s just gorgeous. This shot was full frame – they got so close it was hard to get a shot of any of them. I need to bring a wider angle lens next time. It was cold and the wind was blowing hard, making shooting even more difficult, even with full-on winter clothing and gear. I could only spend about 20 minutes with them before I could no longer feel my fingers well enough to operate the camera. Several times a big gust of wind would blast by, forcing me to make a quick grab for the tripod to prevent it from being blown over.

The Mountain Goat (Oreamnos americanus), also known as the Rocky Mountain Goat, is a large-hoofed mammal found only in North America. Despite its name, it is not a true goat, as it belongs to a different genus. It resides at high elevations and is a sure-footed climber, often resting on rocky cliffs that predators cannot reach…......... The mountain goat is an even-toed ungulate of the order Artiodactyla and the family Bovidae that includes antelopes and cattle. It belongs to the subfamily Caprinae, along with thirty-two other species including true goats, sheep, the chamois, and the musk ox. The mountain goat is the only species in the genus Oreamnos. The name Oreamnos is derived from the Greek term oros (stem ore-) ‘mountain’ (or, alternatively, oreas ‘mountain nymph’) and the word amnos ‘lamb’.............
