Another shot of Bighorns butting heads with a crowd that was oblivious to their combat. Taken south of Taos, NM alongside the Rio Grande River.

Great capture, Joe. I prefer this image over your last because the fencing is absent and the front feet of both rams are off the ground. Moreover, the "crowd" adds interest, and you achieved this image with a single shot. Well done.

Thanks, Ron. Your input is much appreciated. I didn't know I had this one because it was stored in another folder on the card.

Great behaviour illustration Joe! and as you say, the others couldn't care less.

Actually I prefer the other one as the butting rams echo the lines of the fences perfectly, which for me makes the composition quite unique!
