More awesome animals

I’m currently working in the northern part of New Mexico.  We’re trying to wrap up these areas before the snow flies.  If it’s east of the mountains and north of I-40, we are on it.

Saw another elk earlier today.  It decided to run along the road for a while.

Look at all these pronghorn.  I’ve seen a few large groups of them like this in recent days.

Behold, the state bird of New Mexico (right along the edge of the mowed grass).

No sign of any pursuing coyotes at the time.  I’ve seen a few roadrunners in my time here, but this is the best picture I’ve been able to nab.

I’ve got a little off time coming up over Thanksgiving and get to fly back to Wisconsin for a week.  Should be nice to see some familiar, albeit flatter and woodsier sights.
