Beautiful Fall Day at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve

Today was the perfect fall day to walk around the Yukon Wildlife Preserve on the Hot Springs Road.
Here are some photos. Click on any of them to see a larger view.

Something has this mule deer's attention.

 It doesn't seem to matter how close you get, this mule deer just stays put.  Not the first time they have seen a visitor with a camera.

 The fall colours were awesome on the walk between the animal enclosures.

 A mountain bluebird poses on top of the wire fence.

 The elusive lynx could be spotted in the forest undergrowth. Shooting with a 400 mm lens through a chain link fence is a bit tricky, but it works.

 Two lynx kittens were seen, this one was quite interested in what I was doing.

 While I was shooting, a butterfly caught the kitten's attention.

 A muskox grazes.

 This bull elk rests comfortably, but keeps an eye on me.
