A real treat on Sunday

A group of us from Calgary and elsewhere got together for a day of exploring the JJ Collett Natural Area, way N of Calgary, near Morningside, on 6 October 2013. The main purpose was to search for mosses, liverworts and lichens. Very few people are actually involved in the search for, and recording the data of, all species found in Alberta as a whole, and in individual natural areas in the province. We were so lucky to catch sight of this handsome 1st yearling bull Moose walking through the trees and feeding on the bushes way in the distance. Just as I clicked, his nose moved behind a tree (which came out as an ugly blur), so I had to crop that part out of the image. Not the best shot, but good enough "for the record" and to add to my JJ Collett album. A great day and most enjoyable.
