The magnificent Roosevelt Elk, as photographed by Ron Bolander and Scott Mercer.

A lone bull Roosevelt Elk has been hanging out with domestic cattle near the town of Elk for several years. Ron Bolander photographed the big fellow resting in a meadow.

Scott Mercer found him nearer to the town of Irish Beach recently.

We hope a female or two will find their way to him as the domestic cattle herd doesn't qualify for his harem!

Thanks to Ron and Scott for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Rain overnight, brilliantly sunny today - kind of sounds like Camelot, doesn't it?
