Dear Weldar and mid-60s Buick lovers of wildlife (to a point!)

Elk, Mule Deer, and Pronghorn and a lot of snow.


Thanks for sharing the photos!  It does look lovely, but I suspect you froze nearly to death just standing long enough to take the pictures!

I'll enjoy the pics, but you can keep the snow!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

Great photos. Looks like they could have been taken in or near Jackson Hole. That's one of my favorite vacation destinations. Thanks for sharing.

 Thanks for the pictures.  Sure do miss the fall hunting trips out your way. Lots of good memories with them.

 While I was on the phone with Dan A. today, seven white tail deer ran through the property here.

Dear Dwaine, Loren, and mid-60s Buick owners with properties a bit on the wild side!

Had 30+ Mule deer come through this afternoon. Elk Pics from near Jackson WY.

Gee whiz!  The way they were tramping through your property, you'd think they own the place! 

In a way they probably do think they own the place!  :laughing7:

While I was on the phone with Dan A. today, seven white tail deer ran through the property here. 

Normally we don't have more than a few deer tramping through our yard.  But of course they also think they own the place!  Fortunately, they are definitely timid and stay away from us humans.  I wish wild turkeys were that timid!  :BangHead:

Thanks for sharing the pictures!  :thumbsup:

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

A few elk behind the house today. Winter has been long, -27F 2 days in a row so I had to through in a nice cutthroat pic from last summer to make myself feel better.

Jim - No, our property backs up against BLM (Bureau of Land Management) ground. We live on 22 acres of fine western Wyoming sage brush about 5 miles south of the town of LaBarge.
