Cow Moose Down Nov. 2, 2013

I thought that area looked strange for moose too. This is where I see them munching on willows. This is the sister of a brother and sister that live in this area. My camera makes everything look farther away. I couldn't have been more than 50-60yds away.

Thanks for the comments
In these agricultural areas moose travel between islands of bush, so they are always on the move. It's just a matter of being in the right place at the right time. Theres not really any places I hunt where there are "always" moose, because they show up at one property one day and end up a few kilometres away the next. Northern Alberta is a different story as there is a mix of agriculture and boreal forest.
That looks like my own "now-I-have-to-dress-this-thing-and-pack-it-out" look. Completely understandable.
Now, what's unusual to me is that I don't ever think I've seen a moose on country like that? Having been through AB, I know it's pretty flat and very agricultural. I'm just more accustomed to seeing moose where there are water and willows?
Someone will be eating like a king this winter. What a beautiful animal. Congratulations!
