While in the Missouri Breaks photographing elk, I watched on a cloudy morning as the whole herd funneled into a corner of the field. They then proceeded to walk into the timber and out of sight. A few minutes later, I spotted a lone cow elk peeking her head up over a nearby hill. She walked down the hill, and I never saw her again. I captured this photo of her while she was on a mission to find the group. She kept walking toward where the herd had gone, and I’m sure they eventually met up.
