Where the deer and the antelope play...

Photo by Richard Schear, 2013
On a recent trip in southern Alberta with the Grasslands Naturalists group, my husband saw a few Pronghorn Antelope and managed to capture a shot of this beauty in profile, despite being in a moving vehicle. When I say "intrepid photographer" I mean he'll go to any lengths for a photo, except perhaps for jumping out of said moving vehicle.

    Such a beautiful animal. We have seen some of them in Yellowstone - they are so elegant.

    That's a great shot considering the vehicle was in motion. My in car photo never turn out that good.

    I know how Richard feels about getting the photo,Kay. I am the same, and fortunately, Grant waits patiently while I set the function, focus, click, click and click again. I hope you're all having a great weekend. (((Hugs))) Jo

    My daddy sang that song to me! "Oh give me a home, where the buffalo roam"
    What a great memory!
