Taken in Northern British Columbia on the Liar River. It took quite awhile before they became comfortable with me...

Wow, these are nice. I'm amazed that you got close enough. I've heard you don't want to tangle with an angry moose.

Thanks for the kind words Big Jim--I was using a 100-400m lens and at 260mm so I wasn't too close. Ya--I suppose an angry moose would not be good thing.. I was judging the mood of the mother--and she was giving me that don't come any closer look. So, I respected her body language and I was able to get several pictures after that.

These are two fabulous shots. You got close enough as the mother would do anything to protect her young. Thanks for sharing.
