On our way back from visiting Hoover Dam our tour guide took us by this playground in this housing development. At this playground were 20+ Big Horn sheep that come down from the hills every year about this time to feed on the green grass and sit under the trees. It was an amazing site to see.

That one has quite the collar! Almost as though he's a pet. And I'm betting this was indeed quite a sight to see - thanks for sharing!

That is a cool collection of sheep! Great job with control of focus. Don't you just love the 18-200 for vacations!

I like how you nailed the focus on the largest ram.

So do kids (as in children) play here, too? I can well imagine that must have been quite a sight.

Aww, with a baby Big Horn, too :-) And I see one of them is collared, so someone knows when and where to find this flock.

A little heavy on the processing but a cool photo. I didn't see any big horn sheep when I visited the Hoover Dam, damn.
