A couple captures taken back in September for #MooseMonday.

Following a gorgeous sunrise, my daughter and I began looking for moose. We initially didn’t see any but soon spotted motion in some willows west of Sprague Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park.

We and other photographers patiently waited, hoping something would emerge and soon, two bulls did come down to the lake. The smaller of the two was content to stand in the water and eat plants for an hour.

The older bull, pictured here, came down and had a quick drink then retreated to the forest.
