On August 16th, 2025, I filmed this huge herd of elk in North Bend, Washington, during a calm summer evening as the sun was setting over the Cascade Mountains. The elk had gathered in an open meadow, peacefully grazing and resting as the day wound down.

My first ever shots of a wild black bear!! I didn't have time to get my camera out before he/she ran off so I had to settle for phone shots. Thankfully phone cameras are pretty good these days.

Here's a shot I took back in February this year. I haven't visited the mountain since yet so I'm not sure if there's still this much snow. Rest assured, the raven flying around was a paid actor 😆.
