Gap

I haven't been out in the woods since last May, so there was some catching up to do. It was a little bit of everything, including something I don't believe I have seen before at this location in the Custer National Forest south of Red Lodge, a bighorn sheep. It's not a good photo, but it undoubtable what it is. I also mixed in a few images from over the summer from the greenhouse. Lots of moose.

As mentioned, I pulled my best cameras out of the woods in May so these images were taken with my oldest Brownings. There has been no more interference with the cameras from the dumbass criminal vigilante, so I am putting my newest Reconyx back out for the winter. I will secure it as well as I can. All it was getting this summer from this camera was deer eating lilac leaves in our back yard...through a cage.

Browning #6 had a gliche and lost the date/time. Through the sequence of moose images I was able to determine that it happened about 12:41pm on August 14. That's why the elk image has a date/time that looks different.
