The Active Moose Moon 27th of February

Planned to get out earlier this morning. The sun rose at 8:28. Under snowy skies, I ventured out at 9:20 for a run. At the road, I looked right and there was a moose down about 1/2 a block. I walked a bit closer, and she just looked at me. The snowplow was soon on the scene. And finally she retreated.

I shoveled for about an hour, when I noticed a moose bedded down in my back yard. She got up to eat, I took pictures, talked to her and continued with my shoveling. When it was clear she wasn’t leaving, I decided to get a good view from the loft and show her off on FaceTime. Eventually her two young ones joined her. What a blessing to have the time to watch a moose’s ear.

Hello l’m watching you

  1. Love the moose photos! The ones in/near Anchorage aren’t that friendly.. One thing I was told, not that it applies to you since you don’t have a car there, is that if a moose all of a sudden appears in front of your car, always aim for its rear end because moose don’t walk back, only forward so that way you hopefully will avoid hitting it. Myth? Check with the people at McGrath if it’s true?

  2. Great pictures. She sure looks fat.

    Just arrived at M&J’s house. Sixty five minutes with no traffic. Now I wait 30 minutes for taxi.

    See you soon, Love Terry

    1. Bossy, my moose, does not want to be called fat!! I down loaded my cal stirs 1099. I’m looking for a place to print. This is weird but it seems nothing is open.
