“Big wood in the Bitterroot River” by amontanaview | RedBubble Taken north of Victor, Montana USA in April. One of the features of this beautiful freestone river is the “big wood” that supplies features and cover for wild trout. This is a downed cottonwood tree. We were enjoying another relaxing day on the river and fly fishing.

“Fairyslipper - Calypso bulbosa” by amontanaview | RedBubble Beautiful and delicate flower that loves deep shade and cool, moist conditions. This is such a precious flower of the mountain west. The photo was taken just south of Sweathouse Creek in the Bitterroot Mountains of western Montana, USA. As you can see, the sun was peeking through the thick canopy of the forest.

“Young bull elk” by amontanaview | RedBubble Young bull elk. Taken south of Sweathouse Creek west of Victor, Montana USA in early April. He was with a small group of cow elk just hanging out. I wonder what he is thinking or looking at…He is part of a large herd (about 100 elk) that roam this area. Sometimes they are all together, this time of year, they break into smaller groups. Soon the cows will be finding a quiet place to calve, then they will get together in larger “nursery” groups again. Canon EOS 7D 1/1250s, f/4.0, ISO: 250, 500 mmCanon EF500mm f/4L IS USM lens
