We had a nice time up in the Winter Park/Grand Lake area this weekend. On our travels we spotted bighorn sheep, elk, marmots, mule deer, five moose, a fox and a pelican. Not bad huh?
Here's the fox - running through ditches off of the side of the road outside of Grand Lake.
There were five moose in this small group inside of the Grand Lake side of Rocky Mountain National Park - they were across a field of snow, so most of the photos were taken through my binoculars (thus the vignette).
Hope everyone stopping by "minutiae" had a great weekend too.

Interesting moss on some of the dead pines (beetle kill) in the park
A pretty bad photo of the bull moose we saw from the road as we left the park. He had his head in the bushes most of the time but we got a good look at him through binoculars.
This sunset in the Moraine valley of Rocky Mountain National Park was incredible.
We also saw a mother-moose and her two young but I wasn't able to get a decent photo through the brush. Here's the blurry photo I did get (the third one is coming through the brush at the top of the image, but it is really hard to see);
