Here’s another one from Yellowstone — a mother bighorn with her lamb. For most of the year, the males live in bachelor herds at higher elevations while the females can be found down below with the young. It’s only during breeding season that the rams and ewes get together. We came across several large herds of females and young on this recent trip, very habituated to our presence and going about their business as if we weren’t there. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 2000, f/4 at 1/320th of a second
The bighorn mother and kid picture is made by the texture, And the eye of the photographer, of course, i will be adding the 200 to 400 lens to mine kit when I can afford to.

I like this photo very much. A family portrait. The boundaries of animal life and human life seem to blend in this photo.
Great image, Sean!
Oh so gorgeous! Another one with just perfect perfect light! I need to get to Yellowstone!!!!!!!
Really sweet. There’s just something special about the bond between animal parents and their young.
