Elk!

I had to take these photos of two bull elk on our property through an upstairs window in very low light, so the quality is extremely poor.  Another bull was in our fenced front yard when we opened the blinds, and he blithely jumped over the four-foot fence.  It was the closest look we'd ever had of one of these awesome creatures, who are huge--compact car on legs.
