During my summer holiday at the Grossglockner in Austria I was able to take some nice pictures of Capricorns that came pretty close to the people there. They were eating some nice green grass and didn't mind that we also got pretty close with our camera. They minded their own business and ate grass the whole day long. It was nice watching them and also very nice from them that they didn't flee from us.

I had a very nice time watching them, and I was able to take some nice pictures, there were also several birds that I found there. I am already looking forward to visiting this place again this summer. And hopefully I will be able to takte some nice pictures of birds and capricorns this year too.

Cute guys
Yes they are, they live in the nature reserve area there and from March till October you are not allowed to hike through their reserved space, so you have to wait for them to get close enough to the edge of the reserved areas.
Lovely captures. What a beautiful animal with a nice set of horns.
Thanks a lot. Yes they are.
