Moose Sighting

After running a few errands with Mom this morning I was on my way home when I spotted this young moose standing in a shallow pond. She seemed completely oblivious to the onlookers as she munched on water plants. Moose are not as common in Estes Park as they are on the west side of Rocky Mountain National Park so it's a treat to see them occasionally. Living in close proximity to abundant and varied wildlife makes life interesting.
