| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| I was flying from our ship to a lookout point, on the north side of Sommerset Island, Nunavut, Canada, when we happened to cross two Musk-ox who held there ground as we slowly flew past them. I had taken about six pictures, but due to the helicopter shaking so much, this is the only one that turned out half decently. |

Pierre,
Interesting animals! Good thing you took more than one picture. I'm glad this one came out okay inspite of the difficult shooting circumstances.
Looks like they are set up to watch each other's back, and the one is scoping you out pretty well.
What kind of helicopter were you in?
Thanks for sharing,
Dave
Bel effort Pierre !
On en voit pas souvent de ces boeufs musqués.
Salutation, FRANK
