Bighorn sheep walking away from US 191 on the steep grassy slope above the highway. In the middle of April, at about 6000 feet elevation, the grass is just starting to turn green. Two obvious young rams are in the front with thick curled horns, the rest of the sheep appear to be a mixture of ewes and lambs.

The same herd of bighorn as before with the individuals rearranged.

If you look closely at the eye of this bighorn ewe, you will the the pupil of the eye is much wider that it is high.
