So one of my “bucket list” items for my trip to Alaska was to find some moose in the wild. All of the locals talk about them walking around EVERYWHERE!!! Like across their backyards, walking past their studio windows, in the ponds & creeks, everywhere… kinda like we have squirrels. And although we tried to find moose on several prior excursions, I hadn’t seen one until we got into Denali. When suddenly we came up in this sweet twosome… a mama moose & her calf.

Now I know that the photos kinda look like a staged diorama at some Nature Museum… but trust me, they were just walking down the road as we drove up. The calf was hiding & peeking out. Mama gave us the stank-eye a couple times. And then they walked off into the underbrush.
Don’t believe me?… scroll to the last photo where you can see part of the front hood of our car!!!
