Happy Moose Monday.

Today’s photo was taken in late July of 2014 during a Moose Photography workshop.

The area around this lake has been severely burned in the Cameron Peak Wildfire. I hope to be back to this spot in the Summer of 2021 and with any luck, the moose will still be there. It’s always been a hit and miss proposition, photographing moose in this location. Some years, they are barely present. In 2014, I was finding moose in this lake almost every time I’d visit. Probably has to do with the availability of lake grass. I’m guessing they chew the grass until it’s almost gone and then wait a couple of years for it to grow back. I know this much, they love eating lake grass.
