Bull Elk Friday

On my way to work this morning I caught a glimpse of the bachelor herd of bull elk for the first time this year.

Bull elk in Park City

I have seen a few bull elk this fall, but just one at a time, and though I am sure their buddies were near this is the first time I have seen them all.

There are 9 in this group, a few did not make it in the picture. They are resting at the Bitner Ranch just across Bitner Road from the Preserve and Glenwild.

If you get a chance drive around and take a look. Even if you miss them there is a good chance you will see one of the two groups of about 100 females and youngsters grazing in the area.

Scott - Holy Cow! Or, Elk! I can't even imagine a herd of 100! We don't see elk in Phoenix - but they are in Northern AZ.

Scott, I believe that is the first photo I have seen of elk not standing. They look very content but I would think the snow would be cold on their bellies.

Sharon-we have two herds that size within a few miles of our house. Pretty cool.

Beth-you are welcome, glad you enjoyed.

Debbie-The elk do just fine here when the temps hit 10 below and more at night sometimes, I susect the snow felt almost like a sauna to them today.

Scott, I am so envious. I would love to see scenes like this in nature, not in a zoo. You are so fortunate to have this.

GOOD MORNING SCOTT ... Are they knee deep in snow or is that just a great photo?!

Dec 22, 2013 06:44 PM

Lisa-we are pretty lucky here. We should be seeing the elk until some time in February.

Gabrielle-they are just lying down relaxing, anyone could have taken that shot but luckily it was me.
