The Elk and the Butterfly




Sounds like a short story, doesn't it?

We saw the big herd of elk last night, and we were quiet and far away so they never noticed us. Loved seeing these lying down in the shade. Some of the babies still had wobbly legs.



This butterfly was posing for me on the way back from our hike.

Tonight we saw a beaver swimming under a bridge. I've seen a lot of beaver dams but never seen one just swimming along before. It was so darn cute. Sorry, no camera on that.

I prefer this to a short story.

Too bad all insects can't be as pretty as butterflies...
,,,or all rodents can't be as cute as beavers.
