Nice Rack

Up a way in a canyon, not far from our home lives a herd of Elk, protected to roam Thousands will gather to feed winter long When the voices die down you can hear their song Whistles from the elders warn young to stay near While humans stand watch, as hunters they fear A dedicated few load tons of hay in trucks to feed the tagged elders, does and young bucks Their great strength and power is visible in stance While their stamina defense leads a predatory dance Wapiti is the native name known far and abroad As the noblest hoofed being in regal promenade Seldom solitary, most often they'll congregate Bugling from watch outs disperse and reintegrate A sight to behold each winter we've witnessed The blessing of beauty in the Pacific Northwest. tkrosevear 2007 WindOwl Oak Creek Canyon Elk feeding station is a preserve where hunting is off-limits, at the eastern base of the Cascades beneath Mt.
