UTMike, thanks for sharing your sheep for they are not native to our area.

Thanks, Gary, they are native to Utah, but I usually see them high on a mountain side.

Excellent captures, Mike! How far away from the sheep were you? Those closeups don’t give my eye the long telephoto distance compression look I expected.

Thanks, Stan, they were just across the road. I used my 24 - 70 (at 70) and 100 - 400 (about 110) for these shots.

Very nice...great to see these desert bighorn's!!

Thanks, Jim, it was. The only time I see them in Utah I need the 600mm with the 1.4tc and a tripod. I shot these handheld from the car.

We didn’t see any animals on our trip through the park. You captured them well Mike on your trip. Great series.

Thanks, Dennis, there were relatively few visitors and it was morning.

I started my posts with mountain sheep photographed from one of the authorized parking areas. https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-758102-1.html

This set is of two other groups of sheep that I shot from my car during a short stop along the road. Fortunately, they like the plant growth within sight of the road.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

How exciting to see them, mike...great shots!
