Our bull elk was here this morning and he left me a pretty cool gift—one of his beautiful antlers!! As I was watching him he dropped the first antler. It look like they were really bothering him a lot—you can see it in his expression of his mouth. He stayed for a while trying to get rid of the other but eventually left. I hiked around a bit but couldn’t find the second anywhere. I figured I was pretty darn lucky just to see ONE drop and get to keep it! (-:

You can see the one he dropped behind his left hind leg. You can also see the blood on his head where he lost it.
