Got Moose?
Uploaded: September 20, 2006
We lucked out coming across this pair right at dusk. They crossed the road into this pond to feed. They were oblivious to me and the other 10 to 15 other people who stopped after us to see them with camera flashes going off all over the place. They were only about 50 feet from us and not afraid.
