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.

I might have to pop another $10 in the Spitfire and use it for another week.

Re: OMG MOOSE!
Apparently that was the baby moose. DD saw the Daddy once she was safely on the bus on the way to school, she said it was massive and the Antlers were twice the size of the one we saw. She also said it was really really close to the girl standing waiting for the bus

Re: OMG MOOSE!
Unusual that they would wander into the city though - I'd crap myself if I saw one in our front garden - and thats an understandable location!!!!!!
So jealous PP

Re: 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)

Re: OMG MOOSE!
Great pictures, we have had deer on the front lawn, ground hogs and skunks under the shed.
The big OMG was found this week as we walked through our wooded area between our house and the one behind. We found about 6 piles of bear poop in various stage of aging! It seems we have a regular visitor coming around.

Re: OMG MOOSE!
That answers that question...does a bear defaecate in the woods and all that. Although perhaps not all. Now back to the mini moose sighting.....

Re: OMG MOOSE!
Lucky you and fab pics too! I've only see moose from afar; never that close.
On the subject of moose, is it true that their eyes don't reflect in vehicle headlights or is someone just telling me a big fat fib?

I had two run across the road in front of me near home not so long ago - ******' HUGE they were. Then they went down the road and through our yard but I didn't have a camera handy at the time 
Also had a herd of cows wander through the garden one night, but that's another story...
Edit: LOL, I only said f-e-c-k-i-n' up ^there, honest.
