Wildlife Abound

There's so much nature to see here. 

Below are a few photos we have taken either on The Elk Ridge Ranch or above in the protected areas.

In addition to the many Chipmunks, Squirrels, and miscellaneous Rodents, Rabbit, Deer, Elk, Moose, Fox, and even an occasional Mountain Lion can be spotted in the area. 

Hummingbirds, Bluebirds, Mockingbirds, and Finches are just a sampling of the local birds.

 We have not seen any evidence yet of Bears although they are frequently spotted just a few miles away.  

The Bull Moose crossing the river was in South Park County,  Fairplay, CO. The Mountain Goat to the left can be seen most days just a couple miles away. The fawn in the photo below was not injured. That was just where her mom hid her away.
