Had a great sunny hike after a couple of days of dreary, colder weather. We saw lots of pronghorn and deer (too many to count). The flowers were just starting to come out. They weren't as exciting as in the past but I usually don't come out here until June. We did get a little 'lost' (a relative term since I knew my way back and had a GPS) but we definitely were off the trail for a while! Either way we had a great hike through the prairie.
Good thing the deer have white butts or we wouldn't have seen half of them!
The picture quality is awful but I couldn't resist since all 3 heads were looking at us. This is when I wish I had my old Canon w/ the super zoom.
