Elk on Camera

I guess we didn't have to wait until next year to get some elk photos after all... we ran across the herd again on our drive home from work, and we happened to have a camera in the back seat. So we turned around and drove back to the spot along the road where they were eating. They seemed pretty content to continue lounging in the small clearing by the side of the road, until of course we stopped the car to take photos. At that point, most ran back into the woods, with one left behind as a lookout.

The photos aren't terribly good; we were trying to do take photos quickly, and the light apparently was dimmer than we thought. But at least we have proof!
