Bighorn sheep butt heads in the Yakima River Canyon


Tom Foster of Pasco shared this photo of bighorn sheep he recently took along the Yakima River in the Yakima River Canyon between Ellensburg and Yakima. “After many rounds of head butting, the rams joined other members of the herd at the bottom of the canyon for a few sips of water,” said Foster.
