A MOOSE!

A huge big antlered moose. 2o feet away.
I'd read all the bumph on what to do if you come across a moose. It all went out my head with the sheer excitement and wonder.
He was a handsome fella.
Luckily he was not interested in us or annoyed with us and carried on chomping on the birch which meant my brain could remain unfunctioning and I could just gawp.
