And the Antelope Play

2019 West Again, Road Trip, States, Wyoming

On previous trips to Wyoming we have been delighted by the sight of pronghorn antelope cavorting on the Great Plains particularly in our September trips in 1973 and in 2008. This trip we were looking and hoping to capture an image of Antilocapra Americana, one of the fastest land animals in the world. It’s not an easy task even if you keep your camera at the ready. This afternoon by keeping an iPhone in hand with the camera app open we did manage to get a couple of shots using Burst Mode just west of Laramie, Wyoming. It was only a small herd but we’d have to be here in September during rutting season to see large herds of these glorious animals running across the plains!
