August 5, 2016 - This cow moose was feeding on the willow leaves right beside the truck in the driveway yesterday evening.  I noted the height of her shoulder compared to the truck window and this morning measured the height to the window.  The moose is about 5'-9" tall at the shoulder.  That would make her head well over 7' tall.  I think she is about 6" taller than a good sized saddle horse.  These are big animals; especially noticeable when you can see their entire leg down to the hoof.  This morning she was lingering in the woods down by the creek; no calf.
