Day 206: Roosevelt Elk are quite common in my area, but you seldom get close enough to them for a clear shot. Add to that the fact that they prefer to graze in the protection of shadows during the dusky hours of morning and evening, and they become difficult photographic subjects. This morning, I entered the pasture at my customary access point and found them browsing west of me rather than to the east. The low sunlight lit them up like beacons. A very recognizable animal in any case, the pale rump fur is characteristic of the species.
