I decided to drive through Riding mountain park. It was a cloudy and misty day. As l was driving l noticed a truck parked on the opposite side of the highway. l slowed down almost to a stop. l looked towards the ditch and l saw a young moose. l quickly got my camcorder out and got some pictures of the graceful creature.

It looks sweet and gentle, Daniela, but from what I have heard...you don't want to be getting within charging distance of one of those! Birdluv, I'm hoping you had a really good zoom on your camera?
