I'm sorry, but I can't even tell that is a moose. It looks like a pile of mud and a huge one too, so try to make it more clear that it is a moose.

Oh, okay, I'll go back to the Teton National Forest, find that same moose, and ask it to climb up out of the mud so I can take a better picture of her. :-)
Thank you so much for sharing your pictures with everyone. I know how hard it is to get pictures of these beautiful animals. Some people need to put their camera where their comments are! Keep up the good work!
I think(unlike some people) that you took a very well picture.

The anonimus guy or gal that wrote the first coment obviously does not know didily squat about moose. I am a moose hunter and I know that getting a clear shot (picture) of this animal is really not easy. It can take days to be able to approche a single moose in full rut season when the bull is not conscious of danger imagine in the summer when they are all alert to everything.
You managed to take a fine picture and she obviously is aware that you are there, she smelt you and that is why she stays somewhat hidden and has her ears laid back on her head.
Congrats on that great shot.

Thank you, John. I consider myself fortunate. This cow was not too far off the road and apparently was feeling somewhat complacent because there were easily two or more dozen poeple and numerous parked cars along the road getting a look. In fact, I kept a car in between myself and the moose and was shooting over the hood when I took this photo.
