Red Fox - not the comedian!

Posted By Tyler Allred

I couldn't believe my luck. I watched this fox approach a small pond and stop to take a drink. He looked right at me, but didn't recognize what I was. He then proceeded to walk this log on the edge of the pond, while actually coming toward me.....It was great.

This picture was cropped and resized only....the color is all original. I love those dark legs.

Mule Deer

Posted By Tyler Allred

These two bucks did a little posing.....Notice that the larger buck has scraped all the velvet off, whereas the smaller buck still has blood on his antlers and chunks of velvet hanging around.
Cheers,

My absence

Posted By Tyler Allred

Hi everyone! I've been out of town for a week, not taking pictures sad , so I missed a lot here. The photos were incedible this last week! It looks like Cal has an expensive new toy wink I'll try to get around to responding soon, but I'm swamped this morning.
Cheers to all,
Tyler

Quakies at Daybreak

Posted By Tyler Allred

I had the pleasure of camping out with my dad last week... it was great to spend some time with him.

This was taken while on that trip, just as the sun was rising....west of Richfield, Utah. The light was incredibly red. This photo was not altered in any way, just resized.

Aspen Leaf

Posted By Tyler Allred

The leaves were incedible last week on my camping trip. Here is a close-up of one that had fallen to the ground.

Re: Old Man Cedar

I like the older trees...they seem to have lots more character than the teenagers! Beautiful photo James, thanks for sharing!

There is a tree near where I grew up that is called the "Jardine Juniper". As I recall, it is over 3200 years old .....and it looks it! I'll have to take the hike up there someday and try a photo or two. When I do, I'll get the actual estimated age as well. It is truly mind boggling how old some trees can get.
Cheers,
Tyler

PS - I found a link to a site with a photo of the tree. Here it is:
