Moose

Leaving a small town between Ouray and Durango, we can upon a traffic jam. Dwight said it was probably a "bear jam" meaning that people have stopped to view some sort of wildlife. It doesn't necessarily mean there's a bear. In this case, he was right. People had stopped to view two very large moose. It was my first time to see one in the wild. They make elk look like toys and the antlers are unbelievable.These particular moose were as black as night and it was funny that so many people, besides us, had stopped to take pictures.I hope to post another one soon-a little closer up but we also have good pictures of mormets, chipmunks, elk, mule deer, lizards, mountain goats, and wild horses.
