Pronghorn--commonly called antelope--are one of my favorite mammals. Thanks to the help of local residents, I found these animals peacefully grazing in an isolated area outside the Yellowstone Park boundaries, where they were unperturbed by the crowds of tourists and wildlife paparazzi who are everywhere inside the Park. (All photos taken with the Sony a900 and Sony 70-400 lens hand-held or resting on a bean bag.)
1. Who wouldn't like a curious animal with big brown eyes and long eyelashes? He looks up when he first hears the camera clicking.
2. Amiable now, these two will probably be locking horns this fall, during the rutting season.
3. Pronghorn periodically survey the landscape. At a running speed of 60 mph (100 kmph) they are America's fastest mammal, able to outrun wolves, mountain lions, grizzly bears, and other potential predators.
Those are really good shots John. I like the second one the most. It kind of feels like I'm peaking from behind a bush at these creatures. Sharp images too!
