Description
I had been waiting a ways up on the other side of the pond for something to show up, when these beautiful Pronghorns made their appearance. Shy at first, they nevertheless approached the water because they were thirsty. I was happy that the water was calm enough for a beautiful reflection, which even shimmered onto their faces!
From National Geographic: "Fleet-footed pronghorns are among the speediest animals in North America. They can run at more than 53 miles an hour, leaving pursuing coyotes and bobcats in the dust. Pronghorns are also great distance runners that can travel for miles at half that speed."
