We hung out with a nice group of bighorn sheep yesterday in Clear Creek County, Colorado. The rams were busy paying attention to the ewes and largely ignored each other so there was no head butting. I mostly concentrated on portraits, including this image of the largest ram in the area.

And what a beauty he is too!
You probably already know that the tips of the horns are broken off on purpose as the curl impedes their vision.
