Default OMG MOOSE!

I opened the front door to see a MOOSE in the front garden. How COOL is that, so excited, not seen one so close or with antlers before, little bit scared about taking the dog for a walk now, we'll just have to keep a look out and move off the other way I suppose.

Super exciting (especially when your not feeling well)

They are colour blind, so the red is no prob. However, don't make sounds like a female in heat. That could get his attention toot de sweet!

I noticed that as well....

The other thing I noticed is the phlem coloured fire hydrant in the 1st photo...whats with that.

How close are you to the natural habitat of a moose...deep woods etc.

Looks like she's going to get a reprieve.

Great pics by the way. We've had deer in front of our house but never a moose.

Ditto to your photos PP.

I finally saw my first moose this summer. Funny creatures, but so cool.

I wouldn't say there are any deep woods in Red Deer, we have wooded areas and down by the river moose are occasionally sighted but not where we are - a couple of blocks from the mall.
