Description

I took this at the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area near Reedsport, Oregon a few days ago. We always stop there when we take the road it's on to get to the coast, which is juts a few miles west. Many times the herd is off in the distance, but this time they were quite close to where the public is allowed to view from... From the Bureau of Land Management website: "The Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area is the year-round residence for a herd of about 100 Roosevelt elk. A mild winter climate and abundant food allow the Roosevelt elk to remain at the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area all year." Please zoom.
