A large bull Moose feeds on the Willow bushes at Brainard Lake, Colorado and he was pretty darn hungry and pretty darn close. It was rather comical, I decided to bring my Mom along on this photoshoot as she has rarely ever seen Moose in the wild. Needless to say I had her pretty well freaked out with how close he got to us. I mean check it out, you can see his eyelashes lol However that being said, this isn't the closest he got and those shots are yet to come in the days ahead. Personally I think he needs a trip to the Moose dentist myself lol
I hope you all like it.

Wonderful shot John!
Man if you get any closer than this, be really careful, because these guy's are somewhat unpredictable...calm one moment and ticked off the next.

No some don't and they honestly have no idea about shooting wildlife. I am not going to go into it, but safe to say that it's rather just stupid.
