Mountain Goat Nanny
This female mountain goat (also called a doe or nanny) was found and photographed just under the top of Hurricane Ridge on the Washington's Olympic Peninsula. Too busy eating to worry about a human nearby, she did keep an eye on me and her youngster (also called a kid) who was learning which plants to eat by copying its mother.
