The elk are still here. It has been a long week without a lot of sleep. There has still been over 300 head of elk moving through our fields, yard and haystacks. While I have enjoyed watching them it is time for them to find somewhere else to go for the night.
Over 300 elk moved in. Fish and game moved them out.
Last night, Tuesday January 3rd, we had over 300 elk move in again. They stayed most of the day. I have a video to share with you at the bottom of the post.
