Wildlife: Honorable Mention 2021 (amateur)
Mountain Goat on the move by Rajan Desai (United States)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The harsh, rugged alpine environment from Alaska to the Rocky Mountains is home to the mountain goats. I am always amazed by their ability to navigate steep mountain cliffs with ease. I photographed this mountain goat in one of the coves near Homer, Alaska. As our boat docked at the sandbar, a herd of these goats was spooked and wanted to reach higher grounds. I was able to get a few shots of them climbing up the cliff as they started to move higher up.
