Portrait of a mother moose, Grand Teton National Park

Mother moose

One of my favorite wildlife encounters from our trip across the west was finding this female moose and her calf in the pre-sunrise light. The mother was beautiful (as you can see) and the calf was full of energy, and continually bounced around the sagebrush. They were a delight to watch!

  2. Moose when you really look at them seem like a goofy collection of different animal parts yet they still have a beauty all their own.
