I was grabbing my things to leave for school Monday morning when I looked outside and saw something black outside in the trees - a Moose. I immediately ran for my camera and started shooting. I had just been thinking how I haven't seen a moose in the neighborhood this year.
The moose was eating the trees for a while. Then the neighbor came and let her dog out. The dog started yapping at the moose. The moose went up to the neighbor’s house, then around their house, then down their driveway. Then the moose came back up the driveway and crossed into our yard. The moose then walked over to the front of the house where it climbed down the snow bank, and into the street. Many elementary school kids saw the moose while waiting for the bus. The moose turned away from the kids and went up the street into the other neighbor's yard.
I watched the moose for about a half an hour. This is the third time this year I've seen moose. The first was two weeks ago by the southbound on ramp for I-84. The next time was last week when I saw a dead moose just after getting on I-84. I'm glad to finally get some pictures of moose, after being at the Chalet for so long.


The moose in the last picture is next to a Toyota 4Runner. This should help give perspective since most of the pictures where taken from two or three stories above.

What great photos of the moose. Anna is so jealous. If that moose knows what is good for her, she will be back when Anna comes up in March. Either that or everyone can sort of avoid being in Anna's presents. I will stay with Marian, Carol or mother while she waits for her personal friend to return.
