Photo Of The Day By Matthew Morrissette

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Bighorn Focus” by Matthew Morrissette. Location: Waterton Canyon, Colorado.

“A bighorn ram follows his instincts to mate during the late fall rut,” says Morrissette. “Bighorn rams will travel across canyons and rivers to seek females to breed with no matter the weather conditions. This ram was seeking a ford in a river to get to a group of females.”
