Fliping Elk!

Woke up to this thumping great brute poking around my van this morning.  No doubt he could smell the massive supply of food in there!  Such a great place.  It's so amazing having all this awesome wildlife always poking around.  Saw a gopher on the hill today too. 

 This one is blurry because I got a bit too close for comfort obviously and he decided to warn me off by huffing and puffing and starting towards me.  Of course I ran like school girl and nearly tripped over.  In my defense I had a horrifying experience when I was little involving a lot of angry cows and some sinking mud.
