One of the best things about living in Denver, Colorado is the nearby wildlife. Despite an ever-growing human population and its encroachment on open space, the critters still have managed to do pretty well.

Certainly there has been a cost to the growth and as a native of this amazing place, it saddens me sometimes. However, there is still very much an openness here that few cities have.

On this morning a couple weeks ago, this handsome fellow stopped to pose with the Mile High City skyline in the background and, of course, those beautiful Rocky Mountains.
