It's still snowing, Ibex

[Dionigi Colombo]

After two snowy days I decide to go up and look for ibexes in their wintering places. After 2 hours and 400 m of difference in altitude in more than a meter of fresh snow I found 3 old ibexes intent on digging in the snow in search of food

The snow patches attached to the animal’s hair highlight the climatic conditions and the cold it must endure.
The same goes for the snow in the horns.
An image that you had to be determined to get.
Congratulations on going and bringing it back.

Dreamlike. And it makes the ibex look older, almost wise, as it weathers the storm. Incredible.

Dionigi, another beautiful shot in the snow! Amazing tolerance of the cold (you and the Ibex)!

"It's still snowing..."
As my fellow Tucson resident @SonoranDesert knows, it was even snowing here yesterday! (No ibex, but we do have bighorn sheep).
