I sent these to my friends last week but I have been remiss in not posting them here!

Taken from our front door at around 10 a.m. in the morning. We've had more Moose in our yard this year than ever.

Wow..I am lucky if I see an occasional deer or wild turkey...you get moose!!!

Hi Marie5656,

Since we live in Northern Idaho - I don't know anyone in the U.S. that considers us "south". :wah: :wah:

My 2 year old would love that, all we see in Texas is deer and stray cats!

Looks like a lot of "Moose Burgers" there!

Would you like yours "rare" or "well done"?

Well, sort of meant south of Canada and Alaska! Guess I should have clarified that one. :wah:

You made me wonder about that as well. Looks like most northern states are in the Moose belt.

Thanks for the pictures! I haven't seen a live non-zoo moose since I left Northern Maine many years ago. I lived in Idaho for a while, but we were in Southern Idaho - Mountain Home AFB. I think it was too hot for moose there.

Those are Fantastic Pics. Moose are generally very shy such a rare treat to get a picture of them.

Aw you are further south than I

The heat, one can live with if necessary - it was the stench of the nearby cattle holding yards that convinced me that I did not want to live there any longer then the Air Force said we had too!

:wah: Sorry l couldnt resisit it !:rolleyes:

Wow! ... Amazing. I don't know very much about moose, other than what I've seen on TV docu's.

Are they shy creatures, or would they be likely to attack you? Assumimg they have no young ones around of course.

Very nice photos. Must be nice to have wildlife like that wander into your yard. All we get are stray dogs, cats and an occasional squirrel.

Now that is a MOOSE they are such unique animals. I saw one up close and personal once their coat is beautiful and such a rich mahogony (sp) color. Great picture Tombstone..

You've got to have Moose up in your Northern neck of the woods!

They are generally shy - well actually - they don't really care. They pay no mind to my barking dogs.

I'm sure you've read the stories about crazy Moose. Luckily, it seems that those Moose are east and north of us.

All I have are bunnies in my yard. They eat my hostas and make me bitter. I feel soooo gypped! Your yard lush and fun too!

Bloody hell, mine ran away from the rabbit! She'd never have been within 110 mile of a lump like that!
