Bighorn Sheep

Magpies often land on Bighorns and search for ticks. Bighorns seem quite tolerant of this activity and may benifit from the cleaning.

4038 Takin It Easy-Bighorn Ram

Bighorns spend a lot of time ruminating. The dry grass they eat for most of the year needs lots of processing. Bighorns have feeding periods at regular times of the day and then find a comfortable spot like this to rest.

4119 Starlings On Bighorn Ram

European Starlings rest on the back and head of a Bighorn Ram. Starlings were introduced into North America about 110 years ago and are found throughout the continent today. I didn't see any activity by these starlings that indicated they were getting ticks or parasites from the sheep's back, but the Ram seemed quite tolerant of them.

This Ram has suffered a blow to the bridge of his nose that has left a scar. This is a common occurance with Bighorn Rams as they butt heads with each other. Some Rams suffer broken noses in these battles and have crooked profiles.

Bighorns are very active during blizzards. They seem unconcerned with blowing and drifting snow. Their wool coat protects them from the cold weather.

5725 Snowy Ram

This Ram is Rolling his eyes and threatening another ram. These sheep have seen me so many times, that they treat me like I was tree stump or rock. I am convinced that they can recognize individual humans.

Three Bighorn Rams clash during a blizzard. When more than two rams butt heads at the same time, the ram struck from the side is at risk for having a horn broken off. I have seen three rams missing most of one horn.

7286 Evening Light

This ram's horns are so heavy, that they are starting to rub on his face. Bighorns are very enjoyable to be around. They accept people they know. I have had rams come and lie down near me when I sat still on a rock.
