See how she can keep watch on me, even with her back to me, she shepherds her calf away.
I can't but wonder... is this one of the newborn calves that visited here last summer....?

It's easy to recognize orographic clouds by their distinctive shape, and it's fascinating to watch them whirl in place during high winds aloft events.
Not all that obvious when watching in real time, but in a time lapse video, their dynamic movement can be seen.

Chinook winds up to 75 mph barreling over the Interior of Alaska, high winds aloft creating lovely orographic 'battles' in the sky.
Lower altitude winds push low clouds northward while another higher altitude atmospheric force pushes from the north, and those higher altitude clouds whirl in place in the strong chinook winds as the meet with turbulence over the mountains.
