Colorado Wildlife

Another camping trip in the books. This time we ventured into the State Forest State Park area on the west side of Highway 14/Poudre Canyon Drive over Cameron Pass, near Gould, Colorado.

The images below were captured on a side trip up to Long Draw Reservoir Road towards Peterson Lake near Chambers Lake at the top of Cameron Pass. I think there were more cars on this dirt road than on the paved Highway 14. But it was an awesome side trip with lots of animals under perfect lighting conditions.

All images #Nikon D500 with #Nikkor 200-500 f/5.6 AFS

Owlets on 119th

I just had to head out to photograph these little guys with my new D500 and 200-500mm lens. This image is cropped in a little bit (because I can at 20Mpx!) and it came out nicely!
