Yup, I think mom was trying to freeze off her fingers and toes. It was 11pm and she was outside with no shoes or gloves and her camera is blazing away. She wouldn't let me come out and join in the fun. Do I look happy?
Well, here are the results of her near frostbitten foray at 6 degrees.
( I really love that we have moose wander in and out of our yard on a regular basis. Puts me in touch with nature and the bigger picture. It's not all about us, we share this world with so many amazing creatures! )
( OK, I can no longer feel my fingers or toes. Time to get back in the warm house and comfort my dog.
He really wanted to be out here to protect me, but it probably would have worked out the other way.)
I hope you all enjoy the pictures of the little Christmas Moose.
MERRY CHRISTMOOSE TO ALL,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!

PeeS: If we can send you an ornament from Florida, we would love have another special one from beautiful Alaska :) Let us know 1roodog(at)gmail(dot)com The Roo Family :)
That is so cool! He is adorable, big snout and all. I guess he's old enough to be on his own? I was a little worried you might get charged by an angry Mom!

Such a special blessing to see these creatures on a regular basis, they are so beautiful, as is Ryker with snowflakes on his coat. He's such a beautiful boy!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool, just like your hands and feet after taking those photos!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind the moose nibbling on my dead plants, but come Spring and Summer, well I might not be so happy with the pruning if it got to be too much.
Do the moose get to habituated to humans with that wandering through civilization? And if so, doesn't that make them a bit more dangerous?
Just thinking of what goes on with the bears in the suburban Vancouver area, and how they are always encouraging people to scare them off and not leave anything out that they would eat.
A fed bear quite often ends up being a dead bear.
ok, that is just the COOLEST thing since sliced bread! I love it! How lucky you are (and I hope the fingers/toes/feet are ok!)
ReplyDeleteI love that last shot of the moose.
Just catching up on posts for the week. Sorry about your eye, but the dog park looked like a blast. And you ended the week with the moose. Wow - what a week!
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by from the Pet Blogger Hop, I had a mini aussi for years and she was the love of my life.
