<html> <p> Good evening nature fans. Tonight's Daily Nature Fix is about a bucket list item that kept evading us: seeing a moose. Now, thanks to our last trip to Glacier National Park, that goal has been met....well, halfway. We spotted a female moose chowing down on some aquatic vegetation and later we saw a mother moose and calf cross the hiking trail no more than 30 feet from us. Both experiences were awesome, but Kylene and I both really, really want to see a bull moose with it's iconic rack of massive antlers. We've been hoping to check that off of our list for years now, and we still are. </p> <p> Anyway, here is the moose cow we saw in Fishercap Lake in the Many Glacier region of the park. We were told by a ranger that the lake was a good spot to see moose so we hiked down there posthaste. Sure enough, there she was:</p> <p><img src="https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15492101_1371390812879913_7876952039731648221_n.jpg?oh=0714d9625cca010fb73963ae5a560131&oe=58B62A26" width="785" height="521"/></p> <p>^^^An actual moose! We were really hoping to see a male, but beggars can't be choosers, I'm told. </p> <p><img src="https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15541493_1371390769546584_5415853575841439281_n.jpg?oh=acb74cc753c667ac0566c60610db357a&oe=58BD705F" width="785" height="521"/></p> <p>^^^As you can see, the lake isn't all that deep which I'm assuming is why it's a popular moose hangout. She was eating some kind of plant matter that was growing on the bottom of the lake. You can see a bit of it hanging out of here mouth in this photo.</p> <p><img src="https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15380290_1371390819546579_2012272945801702190_n.jpg?oh=85bb2efe0700dfb5a1c2009949a8c05f&oe=58F85C93" width="521" height="785"/></p> <p>^^^Our first moose sighting and we were fortunate to have it in a place with such an awesome setting. Snowy, rocky mountains all around. We didn't get a photo of the mom and calf moose I mentioned earlier. It all happened very quickly and, to be honest, I was pretty freaked out and didn't want to do anything to her. She easily stood 6 feet or taller at the shoulder. I wouldn't want that angry mom to be upset with us!</p> <p> Thanks for reading! I post a nature-themed Daily Nature Fix blog every day.
