Moose in the Yard

Click on images for a larger view



This cow and calf moose were in the back yard this morning. In fact, they are still just outside my window, lying down. Doesn't she have pretty eyes?



Barrie and Kasey came home a while ago. Barrie hadn't seen the moose and let Jarvi and Shorty in the back yard. Of course they ran barking at the moose. Shorty didn't last long, because he won't bark at something that doesn't run from him. Especially someting that big. The cow laid her ears back and it looked like she was coming over the fence after Jarvi. Barrie panicked because she knew if the cow chased her that Jarvi would run to her, and she had left Kasey in the front yard. So she went back to get Kasey in the house. When she left, Jarvi followed her, and both moose laid back down. Just a minor irritation in the life of a moose.



Wow! We're having a tropical heat wave! It is up to 20 degrees!
