As I was driving home I saw these Elk in this small stream. The shadows were challenging but this is what came through.

That last photo seems to indicate a full curl bugle. Great!
I didn't hear any bugling from this guy. I think he was sniffing the air for signs of female cooperation.

Good job, Cliff! Very good shots! I've never seen an elk!
You have to come to Rocky Mountain National Park. We have over 3,000 elk in the park. Moose also.
