Tom and I found these sheep on the rim of the Canyon, and we got some good shots. They posed for us for a long time. They were still there when we left. Tom has some full body shots as he was using the 100-400mm and I had to shoot heads with my fixed 300mm.:cry: I did get a few laying down shots, but I had to back off about 30 yards...heh..heh.

Wonderful portraits, Steve. I'm sure their families will buy lots of 8 x 10's.

Thanks Judy, the male was near and I think it had to do with that. Although, usually they smile for the camera...:D
