Some Local Mountain residents
Lens: DA* 60-250 Camera: K5 Photo Location: DA* 60-250 
Posted By: daacon, 05-01-2012, 06:28 AM

As we left Cascade Pound and headed to Twin Jack Lake we came upon a few sheep , just minding their own business. I quietly pulled the vehicle over and walked carefully over. Turns out there was no need as these animals are quite use to Humans stopping and taking shots. The deer on the other hand was much more leary of me. She kept her distance and always knew where I was. It was a nice treat as I don't often see wildlife in Banff (more so in Jasper) so it was a bonus to see some local residents along with the gorgeous scenery.

It's nice Dave when you can get fairly close to nature to capture good shots such as yours.---charliezap

Nice group. Force to pick just one favorite, maybe the second, although it's too bad his feet are nipped a bit.

All nicely captured Dave, that is cool you had wildlife to view along with a great day in the Rocky Mountains. I would say you got your monies worth.
