I
was walking in the
mountains in
southern Quebec near
the Vermont border
and happened
upon this wonderful
moose that allowed
me to sit with her,
photograph her and
walk along
behind her for a
total of about 45
minutes. She was
still happily
munching on the tree
branches
when I waved
good-bye to her. I
thought she was
incredibly
intelligent to be
hanging out in the
area that was
designated the "no
hunting zone" this
season. |
I
walked down the
mountain through the
brush for about 10
minutes. When I
finally reached the
road, the same moose
was standing there
waiting for me!!!!!
I couldn't believe
how she had followed
me, actually passed
me and was standing
there in front of me
again. She had made
absolutely no noise
in the leaves and I
was totally unaware
of her moving in the
same direction as
me. The 3rd photo
is of her in the
middle of the road.
It was a delightful
experience and I am
thankful that Millie
the moose was not
aggressive in
anyway.
Just thought I would
share the story and
photos with the
moose website.
Thanks
