I was looking out the kitchen window a few minutes ago and there was a moose in my yard! He was standing in the water next to the dock taking a bath. I ran outside with my camera and startled him then he headed up to my drive way. :D

Cool,
I used to live in Patten, we would see them all the time had a logging road next to the house, and I was 12 and had two little ones 4 and 8 with me and a huge bull come out in front of us maybe 5' feet away talk about:eek: :eek: Breeding season the bulls can be aggressive he stared for a few seconds and walked off...
That looks like a young one....

mopower 04-27-2004 10:05 PM

No wonder Bullwinkle hasn't be seen in Frostbite Falls...He's in Maine:eek:

MitchStellin 04-27-2004 10:44 PM

That is PhotoShop, This is in line with the Big Foot pictures from the 70s. I call BS. Not really, I saw a baby Moose on a back trail snowmobiling, I shut it off and watched it for at least 10 min, it just stood there. They are a rarity and nice to see once in a while. We have seen large ones from a distance but they always run.

JnT 04-27-2004 10:50 PM

Mr. Demeanor 04-28-2004 12:14 AM

The big bulls are amazing. I have no idea how they can get through the woods with those antlers.

I disagree.

Biggus 04-28-2004 05:32 AM

No photoshop here. Its a real live Bullwinkle.

It really is not rare to have a moose stroll through the yard. Last summer we had a real big one swim across the river, walk up the lawn (busy Saturday morning) past all the kids and dogs and just strolled into the woods. They have no fear of anything so they will walk right past you.

KHO302, The boat in the pic is an '88 Baja Sport 240. It belongs to KEN240 and ZOOM3

Are we still talking about beaver?

BROWNIE 04-29-2004 08:48 AM

Rforsey, I noticed that you lived in Patten, Me. I had a friend 45 years ago from Patten. Big SOB potato farmer named Steve Webb. Ring any bells?

Rforsey 04-29-2004 09:54 AM

Brownie,
I was there in 82-85 and was 10 years old in 82, My parents moved back there and we still have close friends up there. Rick Cameron Family had the local bar. and I not sure if you know the Andersons. They now own most of the town

Potato Farmer's are funny I couldn't believe that when I started school, you go for about 2 weeks and then everyone has 3 weeks off to go pick potatoes... I thought it was cool but at 50 cents for a barrel that wasn't going to happen.
I babysat for Scotty's flying service which was cool as hell the kids taught me how to swim:D
by the way never go in a bait pond with a 5 and 7 year old in a canoe when you don't know how to swim:eek:
we would ride 3 wheelers and 4 wheeler and there was 3 different beaches, just awesome........ and I got paid for it.
If you really want to know about him I could try to find out for ya.
