Evergreen Lake

Yesterday (6/6/2019), 4 baby elk were born, to 4 different mothers. The elk were born on an island in Lake Evergreen, accessible only by swimming, safe from predators. Today, I went down and got a few shots. The moms left their babies alone on the island for much of the day, but then returned around dusk to feed their babies. It's funny but, I lived in Dallas for 7 years, and I never saw anything remotely close to this.

So, I shot some photos in the morning, then rode up Mount Evans, and returned about sunset to catch the moms feeding their babies.
