I just had the pee scared out of me!!

I am still shaking.. I was sitting in my Family room sewing I had just got up and turned around and got the shock of my life! 2 moose looking in at me thru my picture window. I am suprised I did not scream... Of course I did what any good blogger would do I ran up stairs to get my Camera.. By the time I got back down stairs They were not By the family room I went into the girls room and they were walking past there Window . For as big as they are they sure move fast. So I did not get a good shot so I ran up stairs knowing I would be able to see them from the deck.. Yep I sure could they were right there in my back yard. At this point the Momma moose caught on to the fact that I was stalking her . She was not very happy that I was disturbing her nice morning stroll She definitely had her panties in a wad the back of her hairs were raised on her neck So I did not even dare open the back door and try to get a shot from the deck. I was not willing to risk finding out if moose could climb stairs. She kinda stopped her hoof and walked gracefully away. After I picked my jaw off the floor from watching this display I quickly took this pic of her marching off to the neighbors yard and into the forest to eat some bark off of the trees. The whole thing was just crazy.. BTWI don't live in the country I live in a subdivision in I guess you would call it Town I don't think you could consider where I live the city. LOL

Wow! What a cool surprise. Funny how she didn't like you stalking her after she was the one spying. ;)

Ooooh, moose. When we lived in NH, we had moose. I was actually late for work more than once because a moose was standing in the road, blocking traffic.

A very popular bumper sticker in that neck of the woods said "Brake for Moose, it could Save Your Life" along with its slightly naughtier older brother "Brake for Moose, it could Save Your A--" ...

I'm glad the biggest critters we have here in my corner of NY are deer. The moose I was not so fond of!!

Oh, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! Cheers!

That is so neat! We used to live in a subdivision that backed up to Eglin reservation....bears and cougars and other critters would wander through our backyard....mainly at night. We'd see paw prints each morning.......
