<< While Audubon Birdathoning in the Yakima
River canyon south of Ellensburg about 2 1/2 weeks ago, I spotted a Bighorn
Sheep, right next to the highway! I was definitely not expecting that!

How common are such sightings in that locale? >>

Bighorn Sheep are fed each winter at the Oak Creek Wildlife Area near Naches
at the foot of nearby Clemens Mt.
