I walked right up to a moose once. Being ten years old, I didn't have the sense to be scared, only amazed at the size of his gargantuan head and horns. How did those spindly legs hold them up? A few days ago, that would be a couple of great strides into fall, I had another woodland encounter. Only this time he wasn't in a parking lot in Montana, he was right in my front yard.
He blends in so well to the earth, it took a moment for me to become aware of him. He stood so close, I expected him to rear up, and braced myself to react if he charged. But he just stared steadily at me. That thatch of fur between his ears is the prettiest brown I've ever seen.
I slowly walked away and went back upstairs for my camera. I wanted you to see him too.
See how nicely he posed? 
After twenty minutes and lots of clicking he stood
turned
and sauntered away. Good-bye Mister Magnificent.
Update as promised .
Lots of woodland things. I bet you can guess why.xx
