Up to her Neck

We probably came a little closer than we should have in our canoe -

But in the end she didn't seem to mind us too much. Just after dawn on

the Bowron lakes. Thank you for your time and thoughts.

I'm thinking that the two of you could paddle faster than she can swim, as long as you don't tip it over...

 

This is a nice nature shot, thanks for getting close!

I've also encountered moose in my travels. This time of year they don't seem to mind too much. But in the spring you need to be a little more careful, they might not appreciate you getting too close. I actually got to within about 5 or 6 feet from a big female a couple of years ago (through an open sunroof) and she was just not at all interested. My shots were at night and not quite as nice as this.

AWESOME capture. Very well done.

Thanks you Shawn Bob and Lawrence. Well, I'm glad she didn't seem to mind us but I will be sure to be more cautious in the Spring. Thank you all for your feedback. I really appreciate it

What a swimmer!...good capture!...Ciaomau!

Buena toma, con gran detalle. Saludos.

Great shot and marvellous experience I guess (remembering my encouters of moose in Norway). Compliments Sonia. Regards Jaap.

Thank you Maurizio, Gallego and Jaap. It was quite the experience. You have to get up very early to see them at their best. She had a calf with her when she first came out. He was prancing and splashing - until he saw us and then he nervously moved into the bushes. Too Cute. Thanks again

Wonderful capture Sonia! Kind Regards Andrea
