Frosty weather brings in the elk ...

Yesterday it was so frosty - below freezing, even at noon. On a hunch, I suspected that the cold weather would bring the elk herds down low.

Yes, I found a smaller herd - about 60 or so. They stay away from the road and my camera doesn't zoom well, but loved catching them in their frosty environment, enjoying green feed.

Such magnificent animals.

Peaceful Pastures ...

Just 3 miles down the road from where I live. It was below freezing, so the pasture grass is tipped with frost. Love the colors - subdued but work so well together.

Mt McLoughlin.
