Moose - Alaska

A total of three this morning around the house. With chickadees, nuthatches, redpolls, and hairy woodpeckers on the feeders. Ravens squawking in the woods. Driving to Seward tomorrow in hopes of adding a few mammals and birds to the list.
@Great Argus Moose are sadly extirpated from Wisconsin. They were killed off by parasites passed from White-tailed Deer. If these parasites got under control they could easily return, however, give they they do still occur in both Minnesota and upper Michigan.
 
I've never seen one in the wild before, so I was stating it was lucky too see one anywhere.
