[attachment=43071:attachment]Last night my son calls me about 8:50 says hes watching a herd of elk in the back yard 20 or so cows and a 5X6 bull just hanging out. No way I could get my camera gear together and get to his place before dark so I settled for listening to he and his wife and daughter describe the view. He says" huge big bull dad you should see him!". His wife says what a spectacular majestic creature I cant beleive its right in the back yard!
Are we gonna kill it dad? says his five year old daughter. No dear were just gonna watch them. The cows are all getting up and starting to walk up the creekbottom he says. Oh Oh the bull is getting up man he is big. I'm just Listening on the cell phone and wishing I was there.
So tonight I offer to feed the dogs and ask the wife to ride along so about 7:00 we head up feed the dogs and drive to the top of the hill and park above the water towers so we can see up and down the creek bottom. An hour goes by. Not a creature is moving save for a bunch beef on the hoof. No deer, elk , hog, cat , turkey nothing.
Then all of a sudden things start moving!
