Even though these majestic Elk are raised at the Canadian Rocky Mountain Ranch, along with Buffalo/Bison, it's amazing to see them on the rolling hills SW of Calgary. Taken on 24 June 2013. I did think of "removing" their ear tags, but I was just too tired to do it. Of course, one always prefers photos of animals in the wild, but I rarely get to see wild Elk and, when I do, they are way off in the distance. This closer shot shows what beautiful animals they are. Throughout history, elk have been hunted for their quality lean meat. More information on the Canadian Rocky Mountain Ranch can be found at the link below: www.crmr.com/ranch/ Yesterday, I finally copied all the photos from the computer I'm using on to a new external hard drive. This was supposed to be done as part of a full transfer by the people at the computer store, but it wasn't. Can't face carrying the two computers back to the store and back home, and being without a computer for a few days again, so I'm doing it myself. Took just over 7 hours to transfer yesterday - I kept off the computer while this was happening, as I didn't want to risk doing something wrong or making it take even longer to do. Sometime soon, I will have to hook up my "new" computer and transfer all my photos to that, and then comes the fun of trying to figure out Windows 7, ha.
