Due to my recent move to the Lake of the Ozarks, along with the Covid issues, I am currently not teaching group classes. However, I am available for private individual or very small group, in-the-field teaching, where we can safely learn more about our cameras and our photographic techniques..

Fun Friday: “Got Milk?”
While hiking Logan Pass in August, I came upon two Mountain Goat nannies, one with a kid, along the side of a mountain. They were not very active at the time, so I hung around for a little while. When one of the nannies stood up, her kid quickly moved underneath her to nurse: Photographic […]

Cute Little Kids
Today’s post features some of the many, cute Mountain Goat kids that were in a group of goats near the summit of Mount Evans (in the Colorado Rockies). The Mountain Goats, and particularly the young kids, are always a highlight of every trip I make to Mount Evans. Born in early June, by late summer […]

Close Encounters!
Over the weekend, I had a chat with one of my local Master Gardener friends about close encounters with wild animals. I mentioned my close encounters with some Mountain Goats a couple of years ago. He was interested in seeing some of the images captured, so I’m re-posting that post today. Below is my original […]

Fun Friday: “Up-Close People Watching!”
After my Colorado mountain wildflower photo shoot, I spent a few days camped at the foot of Mount Evans, one of my favorite locations to photograph in Colorado! One of my favorite subjects to photograph here is the Mountain Goat. And summertime is double the fun because all the young kids that were born in […]

Goats at the Summit
Today’s post features some of the fun wildlife of Mount Evans, the Mountain Goats (Oreamnos americanus). Often when visiting the summit of Mount Evans, there will be a group of mountain goats wandering around, playing or getting their salt intake from the rocks and gravel. During this day’s drive to the summit, there was a […]

Rocky Mountain High
I’ve been busy going through the rest of my Montana/Colorado trip images and now have a few more to share. In this post, I’ll share a few more Mountain Goat (Oreamnos americanus) images I captured along the Mount Evans Highway in Colorado. One of the items on my “shot list” (i.e., “to do” list) was […]

Romper Room!
On my second trip up the Mount Evans Highway, I came across a wonderful sight … a group of a couple of dozen of Mountain Goats (Oreamnos americanus), and within that large group, there were at least 7 month-old “kids”. And mountain goat kids are just like human kids; they are often busy playing! At […]

Those Glorious Goats!
The last leg of my recent 4-week photo trip was to camp at Mount Evans (Colorado) and photograph the beautiful scenery, wildflowers and wonderful wildlife there. And one of my main interests was the mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus). I have been long intrigued with these mammals, especially how nimble-footed they are on the rocks and […]

“Cat and Mouse Games … With Goats”
During a stop at Summit Lake on one of my early morning travels up to the top of Mount Evans (Colorado), I noticed a rather large herd of mountain goats along the slopes of the mountains that surround Summit Lake. The group consisted of ewes, their newborn “kids”, and some yearling goats (note: although it […]
