Big Horn Sheep

As they came down, they knocked the loose rocks over the edge and you could hear the rocks bouncing off the edges of the other rocks.

Nice shot Skippy. I had these around growing up. Amazing creatures.

Wow, Skippy !
Is that right next to your house ?
Amazing photo.
Those sheep must be so sure-footed ! :o)

Great shot Skippy, if it were not for the dark shadow behind them they would be pretty hard to spot, the colours blend in so well.

Thanks for your interest. TT, yes, it is right across the street from me. FF that is why I was afraid you might not be able to see them. I have much better pictures of the sheep (btw-they are as big as a small horse) but I was fascinated that they were right here, close to my house.

Oh yes didnt see the baby at first - great to have them on your doorstep.

Yes, BB, since I take care of my Mom, I don't get out as much as I would like so I am delighted when the wildlife comes to me. btw- are you still catching glimpses of cyril?

Oh yes Skippy almost moved in here.Hes really looking forward to his Christmas dinner and all the trimmings.

At least he should be happy he is not the main course...sorry but some people actually eat squirrel stew in the backwoods areas of the US...I guess it is all in what you get used to...I couldn't imagine eating one myself...I love your little Cyril..I have written a children's book (not published) about a squirrel that kept getting into my barn to obtain nesting material from the things which were stored there....she was funny to watch

Great shot Skippy. Your mountains are beautiful.
