Stinkpot jinxed me!

After I commented on Amanda's post
that I had not had a moose in my yard
for along time.
I have had one to two visitors every day since...

I kept talking to him till he finally turned to look at me.


of course from my dining room window.
The last 2 days I have had a Momma and her young one.
My Dad was commenting on how such a large animal can survive
all winter as cold as it is on a diet of wood.
That's all they eat, all winter.
My picture is not that great, sorry.
Check out Amanda's at
They have a gift that runs in the family
check out her Mom's blog too!
She always amazes me
I need to get out more!!!

    All they eat is wood? Really?

    We used to see moose in Alberta, when we lived there. A cow lived in the trees on the next farm.

    My husband is a lover of moos and would be so stoked to have a moose in his yard.

    Hi Heidi,

    Wow, to have a moose in your backyard! There are only a few people who can say that. In the city centre of Rotterdam I certainly can't :-)! We only have some city cats overhere.

    Please don't worry about the parcel. I am sure it will arrive!!

    Lieve groet, Madelief

    Wonderful. I'll be singing this all day now....theres a moose, loose, around this hoose! Just google it or youtube it, typical quaint (nutty) Scottish song. Only it was a mouse, not a moose!

    You're so nice, Heidi. Great shots of the moose. It looks like it's pretty close to your house. Be careful when you go outside at night. Diane

    can't imagine having a moose passing in the yard, but i'd certainly be in awe... and maybe a little scared too.

    Wow Heidi that is pretty amazing... We have snakes, & lizards & wild brush turkeys etc but I can't imagine look out the window & seeing an animal so huge... Do they frighten you & have you ever been outdoors & approached by one?

    Moose! I think I'd be petrified! Do they run away or chase you?
