Rocky Mountain Wildlife 2011

Yes, I know these look like the same animals from last year, but every one of the pictures was taken this afternoon, June 22, 2011.

 The elk flatly refused to look up at me.  I waited almost 10 solid minutes, and he never showed his head.

 The hummer below has been cropped... the full photograph is of a huge bush, and the hummingbird is so tiny, if I'd posted the full photo, no one would be able to see him.  My camera's speed setting was the fastest it would go, 1/1600th of a second, and still the little birdy's wings are blurred.
