Moose Country


We never tire from seeing these amazing animals here in Montana, the moose!  Captured this photo on Sunday coming home from the Georgetown Lake area. This yearling was practically on the side of the road when we spotted her. And of course, not far away was her momma. She watched us closely just above where the yearling was grazing on a pine tree.

We know better than to get out of the car and try to get closer, moose can be very aggressive and dangerous. We kept our distance and respected their space. Love that my phone camera is a good one and I captured this photo.

Love me a moose in Montana!!

When we lived in Ravalli County, we had moose in the yard. I loved seeing them and the elk. Over here in the eastern corner, we don't see much of anything except for antelope, deer and pheasants.

What a great picture! I am always wary of moose...big bodies, pea brains. Love that header picture...a wonderful study in blues.
