Ibex

This was one of those spur of the moment shots (my husband said Look! and all I had time to do was push the shutter), on a moving mini-bus, from the opposite side of the aisle, through people with cell phones and iPads ;-), but I'm posting it because I thought those horns were pretty amazing. This guy wasn't shy at all, unlike most of the other animals at the center. I guess I wouldn't be either if I had a set of horns like that!

Those are impressive horns. He is a beauty too. Good for you getting such a shot in those conditions. V
