Photos on Flickr taught me that bighorn sheep lived at the bottom of the Rio Grande gorge near Taos, NM. Now I know they spend time on the rim, as well.
Here are three rams encountered on Labor Day weekend, 2011, and a group of ewes with a lamb seen in early July.
[taxonomy:binomial=ovis canadensis]
2009.09.13: Austria, Vienna XXII. district, 155 m AMSL (grazing on Lobau Heisslnde = heath).Sheep are used to keep some of Lobau heaths free of bushes; they're however only allowed to graze after the end of the orchids flowering season.Here they fled their shed as they saw me; they ran around it but then returned - and hid again in their shed: so that's sheep for you, no real logic behind it all.German name: Hausschaf
