I'd swear #47 is fake... shot in a museum somewhere. Lol.

Nah, I'd believe it. They'll let you get surprisingly close. I've encountered plenty while driving that were rather...unconcerned even by my truck in close proximity. Mountain goats have been the same way for me too, but I've never had my camera with me.

One time, I was finishing up a climb, and was just pulling myself up the last bit of the climb onto the summit. As my head popped over the top, I was greeted by several mountain goats, who were relatively unconcerned with me being there in the middle of the wilderness. They eventually meandered off while I was eating, but they were hardly worried or scared of me in spite of the ice axes I was carrying.

Some magnificent pictures in there though. I see the dead sheep makes an appearance here, as well. Thanks for pointing these out.

#22 - Bad bad photographer. Completely irresponsible, hopefully this wasn't an overwintering colony.

#5 - AWESOME!

Magnificent. I'd be hard pressed to choose a favorite, although the agoraphobic owl is adorable.

I liked the last one (the one with the owl) that was pretty cool

Thank is very interesting... I had no idea they would behave like that.
