An excellent peek a boo shot...Is that horn spread normal for eastern moose? Our western variety seems to have a more flat spread.

Our spreads vary from moose to moose, with a guy like this one to a totally flat appearance. These are Alces alces Americana the second largest sized moose in North America, behind Alaska's. ...and thy're called antlers, not horns.

Super shot Mark. Like the eye contact even if it's looking manning. Hopefully they have not had too much tick trouble this year?

A very perky, intense look- like "I see you!". Nice color and detail- wish the oof stuff wasn't in the middle of his nose, but what can you do? Still a fine photo.
