Spots
This week while I was hiking down a canyon, I saw a cow elk with her newborn calf. She went around a hill out of sight and the calf laid down. When I came over the hill she ran around trying to divert attention from where her calf was hiding, but I went straight over to the calf. I found him lying in the sagebrush holding perfectly still. He couldn't have been more than a day or two old. After a quick inspection the calf was released and made his way back to his mom. It was a pretty neat morning.

What a shot! I've never seen a baby elk calf. Glad you took the time to snap a photo. So awesome.
