Almost Wordless Wednesday - The Moose Gauntlet at Sunrise

When Shyla and I get out early for sunrise, we get to see some special animals.You would think that moose would be easy to spot but that's not always true. I get help from Shyla in spotting them because she freezes in her tracks when they're nearby.






If we safely run the gauntlet of moose, I can capture glowing photos like this one of Shyla at sunrise.
Happy Wednesday!

    So wonderful that you got to see a moose. fun that Shyla helps to spot them. It is amazing how we can pass wildlife right by, but it happens.

    Great moose shots. They more focused on eating than anything.

    Nothing better than experiencing wildlife right before your eyes. Shyla's coat glistens in the sun. So purrty

    They may be dangerous, but what a treat to be able to see them.

    Gosh, what I wouldn't give to see a moose in its natural habitat! You lucky dog (pun intended). Though as big as an RTD bus, it's just not quite the same in big creatures land. 😇

    I'm with Shyla. I would definitely freeze in the presence of a moose.

    You make me want to get up earlier in the morning! It really is the most beautiful time of the day, especially when you're lucky enough to get to see all that you do.

    Ditto to Astro's words. I cannot imagine seeing moose, having snow in your own back yard, and riding a bike with FAT tyres in the snow. And for you to share with us, SOOO many thanks again.
