I was wondering when I might finally see an elk calf this summer. So far all I’ve seen are pronghorn fawns. But last week before the sun had come up all the way, I encountered one of the largest nursery herds I’ve seen with perhaps 100 cows, many of them with a calf in tow. The light was low, so I pushed my ISO up to 4000. I could or should have gone higher in hindsight. But this photo came out nicely.
