Thought you all might like these Maybe a touch reckless to sneak up ion him in this slough, but the pic was worth it. Actual Saskatchewan Prairie Moose...who needs a swamp? Apparently, I need a swamp. Welcome to De Swamp!

Methinks without a rifle, I am a no go for the first shot!! At least someone I trust with a large caliber behind me...
Nice shots, thanks!

Big Ugly, Great pictures.
"I think I need a swamp" - Looks like waders might be on the list too. That looks like wet feet!
Its got to be nice to be able to see moose wandering around like that. Thanks for the pictures.

Those feet were big league wet. The swamp wasn't a deep as I thought. The lengths people will go for one pintail hen! I thought about packing my waders but thought, ah what the hell, I almost exclusively hunt in fields, I won't have to do any wading. Oops.
That moose was the third bull (3 bulls 3 cows)we saw within 10 miles of home. They were big time in love. All the pics were within 150 yards. The second one we saw was half again as big as that guy (all 3 are the same bull) but my brother was at the controls of the camera and there were *ahem* technical difficulties. There's so many moose showing up in that country around home that they'll be able to justify a season pretty soon.
