Crash! Bighorn Rams
Thanks all! I learned today that this photo, and perhaps others of mine, are going to be included in a big event in late April. My big regret is that my camera's white balance was improperly set at the time of that photo and I did not capture the true colors! Everything is off a bit. I've since... -

Mountain lion kills shed hunter
I wonder if the officers tried to shoot the cat and missed? Also am surprised that neither of the young men who were attacked seem to have been armed. Is it that difficult to legally carry in California? Very sad incident indeed. Guy- Guy

Bad kitty
Very sad indeed. I'm somewhat surprised that neither young man was armed, but perhaps it's more difficult to legally carry in California than I knew. Guy- Guy

This Morning's Ram
Would have been so very easy with a rifle or revolver... Sigh... I'm happy about being able to photograph them though. Someday a tag, perhaps. Guy- Guy

Today's Eagle
Walking the bird dog this morning... We found a bird! Eagle was very cooperative about posing for photos. He was perched overlooking the Wenatchee River, Chelan County Washington. Eagles and osprey both like that river and the Columbia as well. Regards, Guy -
This Morning's Ram
Was out to walk my dog north of town today and was fortunate enough to find five rams hanging out together. They were pretty cooperative about posing for photos. I was less than 100 yards from them and the sun was just about perfect for photography. Perhaps someday I'll draw the tag. Until then...- Guy

How long did it take for your first elk?
Oh, I stumbled around seeking elk on my own for a few years. A fellow reached out to me and invited me along. He'd been hunting elk for over 20 years with a great track record. We horse-packed in, set up camp, scouted. Located the elk. Waited for opening day. He bugled a couple of times and less... -

2023-2024 Chukar Adventures
Sometimes I manage to get close to 'em with my camera. Sometimes it's just too much work! When it's the shotgun, for chukar I usually carry a synthetic stocked Beretta 390 12 gauge. Light, and hard to bang it up too much. The pretty over & unders stay home most of the time on that sort of terrain!- Guy

Recreation without Consequences?
Thanks neffa3. I posted this on my FB page as well. I suspect that "overlanding" and off-pavement motorcycling also negatively affect wildlife. And wildlife photography.. As a photographer I try to minimize my impact on wildlife, but I know that birds and wildlife have fled time to time when...- Guy

Crash! Bighorn Rams
The same two rams, a little posturing going on. Darker ram on the left seemed a little younger and a little smaller. He did buckle to his "knees" after one of their hits. -
What was your first big game rifle, and do you still have it?
Yes, still have the 6mm Rem 700 BDL that Dad gave me in 1974... Mostly my youngest son hunts with it now. Thirty some years ago I replaced the factory finish with 7 coats of rubbed-in Tru Oil. About 15 or 20 years ago I updated the optics, putting a 3.5-10x Leupold on it. Before that I'd... -
