Exclamation I never thought a Moose could look 'Majestic' ... I guess I'm wrong ;-)

.


'Snow Moose'


And yes ... there's a story behind that photo 👉 https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/majestic-...ours-1.5147475

Hat's Off to Matthew Henry of Lethbridge, Alberta ❗

Great pic, just my opinion but I have seen a number of moose over the years that look majestic, nothing like a big bull in his prime during the rut,

Very nice, there is something about photographing an animal, domestic or wild, when the snow is falling...

Thanks for sharing.

Moose are always majestic!! My favorite of the wild ungulates. Just ask the Hublet how happy I get when we spot one on a drive..."OMG, a MOOSE!!!"
We saw that story last night...this young photographer will be one to watch.

I love moose.

Not sure if this vid was posted here before but worth watching the Russian moose farm

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess.

I think Moose are awesome, on the hoof and on the plate.

Did you know that Moose hair collects solar energy? It's a big part of why they are able to survive even the coldest weather while eating nothing more then twigs.
Anything else would starve to death on that diet.
