Critters

Wow, it' been a while! I got a new camera and was dying to use it, so even though it was freezing cold, I drug my family out to Antelope island for family night. Even though it was cold, the animals were very active and we got to see, Bison, Antelope, Deer, and even a pair of Coyotes. It was worth it! Here are a few shots of an Antelope. The deer have mostly shed their antlers, the Deer pics I'm posting here are from Bear Lake around the first of the year.

It was pretty dark, but we still got this shot. notice the one buck has his antlers, and the one on the left just dropped his. These bucks were on the island.

  2. Broseph, dreeaaamy photos! How in the world did you get that close to a stupid antelope? One of the more skiddish critters out there. The D4 has paid for itself already my friend. Great photos and post! BTW, I have huge expectations from you in the near future...
