Moose Cow on the Alert

With the beautiful crisp, cold weather lately, I took a trip out to the Wheaton Valley area to test out some new toys, a Nikon D610 and a 16-35 f4 VR wide-angle zoom lens for landscapes. (I was impressed). Good thing I brought the telephoto equipment too. This cow moose and her calf were seen munching on willow bushes, their favourite food. Amazing that they can survive the brutal cold of Yukon winter on a diet of wood!
