August 2011
First off to all those that visit my photostream and comment on my pictures... THANK YOU... I really appreciate the time you take to view and comment on my photos... and I look forward to your comments and suggestions....
Now to the picture at hand... this past August I had the wonderful opportunity to come across a bull moose that was feeding on the plants that were growing on the bottom of a small pond... this bull moose paid no attention to me and another photographer that were there as we snapped away like crazy for about 10 minutes while he fed and moved around the pond... he eventually left as more people stopped to see this rare and awesome sight....

How lucky was I?... During a 3 day visit to Riding Mountain National Park, I came across not 1, or 2 but 3 different Moose that were standing in a pond feeding... On this morning I came across this young bull Moose who allowed me to get a couple of decent shots before swimming off towards the far end of the pond and then disappearing into the woods...

This White-tailed buck was staning just outside the tree line in Riding Mountain National Park... normally I see lots of deer in the park during our visits but this time around they were few and far between... this was the only picture I took of deer during our 3 days there...

Just a preview of things to come... during a recent visit to Riding Mountain National Park, I had a number of opportunities to take pictures of Moose in the park... this is one of a nice bull moose that was feeding in a small pond... as he was about to exit the pond he stopped and looked thru the reeds in my direction... snap... here is the shot basically unedited... slightly cropped...
