Title: Horses and Moose
Post by: PattyInAK on February 01, 2010, 08:47:51 AM
Had two moose in the corral this morning, munching hay with the horses.  Neeki's wish finally came true, she had a moose buddy for a little while.  Looked like a mama moose with her yearling.  Pictures later, Dan said he took a couple.

I just convinced Guinness to drop the argument about "moosies" and "horsies."  :crazyeyes: At 6.4 pounds - U.S. - he is definitely barking up the WRONG tree!!   :2funny:
