Alaska moose
On my way home, there was a very big and healthy-looking moose by the road. Snapped around 75 photos, from approximately 150-feet away. Used a Canon Rebel XT, and a Canon 200MM lens.
Not too happy here, but...

She relaxed very fast soon after. Maybe she thought I was handsome

Yes. Moose have migrated South from canada, so folks in the North US, from West to east, should be able to see some. Moose prefer early morning and early evenings to move around, but I also see them in the middle of the day. They usually shy away from people and loud noises.
The moose above roams around the neighborhood. There is a house in the photo's background.

Hello RayinAk
I hope you don't mind me asking a technical question. I have been preparing some of my photos to be posted online and would like to add a border and sig like you have on yours. so my question is what do you use to add that to the photos?

Most photo manipulation software included photo frames you can add to your photos. I use PhotoShop Elements' frames sometimes, but most times I use frames that are sold for a very small fee, and designed for Elements. First, you have to scale the photo down to a certain size, 765 pixels x 400 (something) pixels in the photos above, and then add the frame and type your name on the photo if you want.
There are all sorts of free, or at least very low cost frames for PhotoShop Elements on the Internet.
