"Declaring His Territory"
By: Karen Callihan (New Paris, PA)
Declaring His Territory. Has a story behind it. We were just back to camp for lunch after the morning was spent looking for elk. We ate and sat down on the porch prior to heading back out for the evening. We could hear the elk bugling below camp. When my husband decided to try his hand with an elk call left at camp, by one of the other members. He would call and they would answer. After a short while I told him that it sounded like they were coming closer and decided to retrieve my camera from the car. As I was walking to the car. I could see movement in the woods on the far side of the yard. Here came a cow and she was being chased by a big bull and a smaller bull. They were running up and through the yard and then back towards the way they came. Stopping only long enough to check out our whistles. Picture taken 9/28/2026, 3:06 PM. Canon EOS 6D Mark II, F/5.6, 1/800 sec., 329mm, ISO 8000, Tamron SP - 150-600.
