Moose Pics

[Sorgy]

Does anyone have any moose pics out there. I recently saw a home video of a couple of guys who went out every day in 1993 for the month of Sept and called and filmed the moose coming in. It was kind of cool does anyone know who they might have been. I believe that it was done around Isabella? I am lucky to have drawn a moose permit and I would like to see some minnesota moose pics.

Thanks

Hey Sorgy:

Welcome to FM. Good to see you here.

I can't help you out with who took the moose footage you're referring to, nor can I provide images of giant bulls with huge racks. But here's a yearling male that stopped traffic near Babbitt earlier this year.

Canon 20D, Canon 100-400L image stabilizer (handheld) at various magnifications, iso400, f8, various shutter speeds.

And now a three-image series . . .

Wow great pics. It looks like he doesn't really care about anything. He must not know much. it is always great to see your pics. I have also seen many of your pics in the past. I think one of my favorits is the nice buck coming out of the pines or cedars with snow all over him. Your camera must always be within reach. Keep up the good work.

Thanks

Steve

Thanks Steve. You're right — I'm never without a camera. No camera, no picture.

Steve,

Do you still have the picture of the loon holding the minnow? I would like to see that again. I looked through here but I couldn't find the thread. I'm pretty sure you were the one that took that. There is another one of a baby loon on the back of mommy.

As of now the 'Fuzzy New Loon Chick' pics are on page 10.

Finns.

Hockey Guy, there are two posts with those loon chicks, one here and one on the bird watching board. I bumped them both to the top to make it easy for you.

I wonder if he has brain worm. Makes'em act pretty foolish and unpredictable.

Great pics, btw! Thanks for sharing.

He was quite thin. These were shot in early spring, and maybe he'd had a hard winter. He moved pretty well, though.
