La Pine has the privilege of being home to a lot of beautiful wildlife.  One of my favorite are elk, don't get me wrong I love to watch all critters Central Oregon offers, but elk just captivate me.  They are so big, graceful and majestic.

La Pine State Park is a likely place to find these beauties most days in the Spring, Summer and Fall.  La Pine State Park features a great camp ground, Big Tree and The Big Deschutes River.

This photo was taken on the road leading to the park.  So, locals and visitors alike be careful - Elk do travel both day and night and their eyes do not glow at night to warn you of their presence.  They can do a lot of damage to your vehicle should you happen to hit one.

Thesa, great picture. I have to admit the wildlife is something I miss about Colorado.  Not enough to move back to snow but I did love going for drives in the mountains and seeing all the wildlife.

Hey Thesa... yes, Elk are large,.... but graceful?  Do they dance in ballet shoes?  lol  I do like the wildlife and remember my grandmothers house out in Wisconsin, near Lake Michigan....

Hi Thesa,

Oh my gosh, that must be an amazing sight. Do you live in a great place or what?

BTW, I told your Onstar story again the other day.
