Baby Bighorn Sheep Nursery

We got a late start this morning and arrived in Badlands National Park at around 6:30 a.m. and the light was already getting harsh.  We found the most amazing gift of the day.  At the first overlook, we saw at least a dozen baby bighorn sheep being watched over by a couple adults.  It doesn’t get cuter than that.  Regis got some video of the little ones.  To see it click here.

The babies played and butted heads with each other.  There was also a couple babies and adults hanging around the overlook and we were able to see both babies nurse.  The moms stopped the feeding before the babies were ready to stop nursing.

It was an amazing experience.
