Moose encounter




I had a nice close encounter with a moose Sunday morning at Covey WMA as I tried my best to shake off my jet lag and get back to east coast time. Although I managed to see some good birds there the highlight was indeed this quite inquisitive moose. The closest and longest encounter I have ever had with a moose.

  2. Close encounter of the third kind? I guess not science fiction. You are lucky, nice shots! We have seen moose occasionally here in southern VT but I always thought of them as migratory young males looking for females. They never seem to stay. But from my reading Mass does have a breeding population. Amazing.

  3. Thanks. It was a neat experience and shows you that you never know what you will come across out there.
