When the World Was Brand New
This newly born fawn rests in the shade while its mother grazed nearby. Image taken in northeastern Washington state.
Spring Bull
While kayaking, I spotted this large bull moose grazing along the shoreline in early spring at a lake in northeast Washington state. The winter coat was still being shed. The antler buds were small, but the size of the moose made me wonder if this beautiful bull would have a huge rack by the end of the season.
Sun Drenched Buck
Most of the time, bucks don't stick around once they spot me, but this gorgeous buck in velvet stood still for quite some time and just looked at me in that beautiful pose. It was an early summer evening, and the golden hues and sunlight washed over him. Shot in northeast Washington.
Prickly Afternoon Slumber
This porcupine was nestled in the crotch of a cottonwood tree sleeping. For a few brief moments, he uncurled, looked down at me...and then curled back up and went back to sleep.
