I took this picture the other day and although it doesn’t REALLY show exactly what the tracks are from I KNOW it was a moose.
They always travel alone unless it is a mum and babies but a mature males always travel alone.
These tracks could not possibly be anything else as Whitetail don’t leave tracks like this…single large footprints….they tend to ‘jump’ if the snow is deep and from this distance NOTHING else would show this large except a Moose.
I tried to see if I could trace them back to the road if he had crossed but it seems not.
He must have just strayed from the bush and headed off to destinations unknown.
I apologize for the unexciting nature of this theme shot but I had a busy day here and scrambled as I had no time to go out shooting today.
I’ll try and do better 😦

The shadow in the foreground brings so much depth to this image!
