Elks, Elks!

All pictures where taken in Rocky Mountain National Park early September, 2006, before the rutting season started. September is considered late fall for high Rockies and Elks move down to subalpine and montane areas.
Each elk or a herd of Elks was accompanied by a group of totally “elchanted” people with binoculars, cameras - some even had big lenses ; ) on them.

ORIGINAL links to pictures downsized to 1200x800 - good for large monitors.

Description in Polish follows:

PL: Elk (american name), Red Deer or Deer Wapiti (euro/english term) (Cervus elaphus), najblizsza polska nazwa to Jelen Wapiti. To nie jest to samo co Los!
Zdjecia zrobione w Rocky Mountain National Park na poczatku wrzesnia, tuz przed okresem w ktorym byki zaczynaja walczyc. W sierpniu Wapiti migruja w doliny opuszczajac strefy powyzej granicy lasu. Jesien w RMNP zaczyna sie w sierpniu!.
Nalepiej ogladac (zakladam szybkie polaczenie internetowe) specyfikujac LARGE rozmiar zdjecia.
ORIGINAL prowadzi do zdjec zmniejszonych do 1200x800.
