My Kind Of Traffic Jam


I had a little bit of a delay when I came home today.This herd of bighorn sheep was hanging out in our driveway and yard. I sat at the entrance to our yard for about 20 minutes watching them graze, not wanting to disturb them. I stayed perfectly still so that they forgot my presence and milled about the car munching contentedly on some new spring grass. When they moved enough so I could get out of the car without disturbing them, I went into the house to get the camera. By that time, they had crossed the street to the neighbor's.

I tried to get this one to come over and play with Tiika, but nothing doing. Good thing, as not all dogs are as friendly as our Tiika-girl. We left them to their grazing and headed into the hills, grateful to have shared a moment with the bighorns. Jenn will be sorry she missed them.

Yes, I was bummed to have missed them. Tiika found evidence of their presence the next morning...
