A day in the Life of a Moose

Yesterday morning I went for a walk along our new paths by our new pond near our new school, all next to our old marsh. As I walked the paths I was shocked to see what could be nothing else than a moose! I rushed home to get my camera and Mal drove me back to take some pictures. As it turned out, the moose spent an interesting day in town.

The moose visited the school,

then crossed the newly planted grass of our baseball diamonds,


passed the community hall,



then jumped over a chain link fence into a yard,
where he spent the day eating their trees!
We saw him there in the early afternoon but by six o'clock he had left -
I assume he went back to the coulees for the night.
I phoned the local newspaper to offer my pictures,
but they said they'd already been given some pictures from a moose
in a backyard last week which they were going to publish next week.

I'll be interested to see if it's the same moose,
or if there's several moose walking the streets of our town!
