Moose Alert...

I spent a couple of days fishing at Baxter State Park and then on The Stud Mill Road in Hancock County this past weekend.

(More on the Baxter trip in my next post)

But as I traveling back toward Old Town , in the  distance I spotted something standing in the middle of the road.  At first I thought it might have been a man looking for some assistance but as I got closer here's what it was....



Of course I didn't have my Canon with the telephoto lens but just my waterproof Lumix that I use when fishing because my previous digital camera now sits at the bottom of Ruffingham meadow..

(More on that in another upcoming post.)

So as I got closer he got less interested in me and ambled back into the scrub brush.

 

Maybe I'll see him again next spring....

  1. I had a moose walk in front of my SUV up in Van Buren when I brought my oldest son to see Phish play a concert being held at the old Air Force base many years ago.

    Those things are huge and he walked in front of me as if he didn't have a care in the world.

    1. Yeah I know they can act "funny" especially bulls at this time of the year. I was wondering if , as I got closer, he would move or become annoyed.. thanks for the comment
