Yes!
Patti and I both know we have published "Quite a few" Moose Posts here on Google blogspot.
It has been one full year since our last visit and Moose Post. What to do when one comes for a rare visit?
So far I, your Captain, haven't been able to successfully resist following Gullible's advice.
"Cap! Take photos and publish them!"
Dum De Dum Dum.

Patti and I were sitting in our living room today when Patti said, "Oh Look Cap, there is a moose in the green strip."
Out I dashed with my smart phone to await a young, female yearling.
Sure enough! Out from between the buildings she casually strolled.
And up the sidewalk, heading directly for Your Captain she walked.
Who knows why, but she then veered off to her left and headed out towards the parking lot. This was good news for me. Here in Alaska, IF one has a functioning brain, one does NOT encourage a close encounter with a Moose!
No human being knows what a young, female moose contemplates, but evidently she decided to "check out who I was and what I was doing!" Back she came.
Onward directly towards me she strolled.
Suddenly, she paused, then she turned around and strolled back out toward the street.
Again she stopped, turned and looked directly at me!
Then a sideways glance at me.
We wonder IF even The Shadow Knows if this will be our final Moose Post!
At least for today it is!
Cap and Patti and our young Moose yearling.

OUR 13th ANNIVERSARY OF BOBBACAPS DOXOLOGY..
On October the 22nd, 2011, when I was in Agra Cantt, India, Gullible opened up our BOBBACAPS DOXOLOGY website.
This is "our", all of you who follow us, along with Patti and myself, One Thousand One Hundred and Thirty Second (1,132) Post.
Thanks to all of you so very much for you support, comments, and contributions!
Cap and Patti
A joyful, serendipitous encounter with a Bullwinkle! What a gift!! Love your various pictures of this somewhat gentle creature and at the same time grateful to know most abide by our Alaskan creed: 'Don't approach the moose's and meese's!' It's better for one's own health! Your encounter triggers my very own memories of this gift of being up close, and personal with mother nature and these majestic moose!
ReplyDeleteThanks so very much Michael for reading, and commenting on, our most recent, the first in a year, Moose Post. Nice it brought back some happy memories for you. Michael you said it: "Don't approach the Moose's and Meese's! It's better for one's own health!" Translation: Don't approach either adults or yearlings or especially never, ever, approach young calves especially with a mother moose in the same vicinity! This female yearling was pretty "relaxed and curious" but again, I stayed clear and give her "space". I am going to post one more photo that shows that I did indeed keep my distance. Cap and Patti who was watching from our bedroom window with some concern for me.
