Moose on the lake







Woke up the morning to a moose having a drink and a bath in the lake outside my cabin. I tried to get some good pics of it but every time i'd get set up for a shot it'd walk behind a tree. I did get one decent pic and shot a little video, unfortunately it was already on the other side of the lake so the quality is not so good. I also put it to some music but you can still hear the gray jays, a common bird in the area and i think you can hear one of Dougs roosters about a mile away. I've seen this moose before on the lake i'll try to get some better footage of it. This moose is tiny compared to the one Sammie faced off with on the river. Wow, the smoke from fires near by is so bad i can't see the hill on the other side of the river from Dougs place!! So i've got a pic of the moose and the view from Dougs place about 3pm Alaska time, may 31st. You can barely make out the lake where my cabin is at.

  1. Are you in much danger from fires at your place or at Doug's? Do you have a fire plan? The moose video was great! Thanks! It was a beautiful Memorial Day back in Minnesota. Cooked enough chicken for you to have joined us. Sarah and Mike and Judy were here. But I think we were only at 80 degrees, so you have it even warmer. Amazing.
