Stepped outside this morning with my coffee and was greeted by the sound of an elk bugling. I had never seen a male elk here on the ranch and a couple of days ago I saw the biggest, most beautiful bull down aways from our property. Huge rack still in velvet. Thought I'd let y'all know they are singing in the south of Colorado.

You should wear something more flattering than velvet, Pam.

I've spent a lot of time at the Boy Scout ranch and the Colorado / New Mexico border. You sure have some large bulls around there.

What an awesome sound to hear from your house! I can't wait until the elk come down for fall.
