July 3, 2020 -Dall Sheep – Another Reason to Go Birding in Alaska

Early this morning I drove south of Anchorage to the Girdwood area. On the way, I was delighted to find numerous Dall sheep on the mountain sides (not, I understand, mountain goats, which have black horns). Just another of the reasons that Alaska birding is made special by non-bird occurrences.

Two of them played follow-the-leader, and my camera followed them.

I saw them again a couple of minutes later.

A great way to begin my birding day!
