Desert Bighorn Sheep, Ewes and Lambs (Peninsular)

Without Ewes, there are no Rams! Therefore the Ewes, and their Lambs, of the Peninsular Desert Bighorns of southern California, get their own gallery!

This ewe is browsing Octillo, which most of the year is a hard spiny stalk. But not now! The late season rains have allowed the plant to throw out a mass of fresh green leaves. The ewe still has to be careful but the gain is now worth the pain!
