I love the videographer trying to get momma to stop eating the flowers. She looked up as if to say, "thank you very much, they are delicious". Clearly, you were speaking two different languages! Beautiful moose family and beautiful yard you have. Thanks for sharing this with those of us the lower 48.
@leotheguido No, the moose are generally comfortable in the yard. Mother's bring their young almost immediately after they are born to neighborhood yards to eat. The mother is very protective the first week . After that she is back to eating and building her stores back up from the previous winter. As long as we are not teasing or bothering them they don't bother us. Even dogs incessantly barking doesn't usually bother them unless the dog tries to nip at them. Thanks for the post!
OMG LOL she's looking at you as to say YOU TALKING TO ME? YOU TALKING TO ME? LOL AMAZING videos..thanks for recording/posting and showing something most likely I would NEVER be able to see myself LOVE BOTH your vids with her and her babies.
Knock, knock, knock....Stop eating my flowers!! And then "Shoo, don't eat the flowers" The moose looks up while chewing as if to say, "Are you talking to me and do you hear that knocking noise?" hahaha....Great videos, beautiful country and animals, thank you for sharing!
Awww cutest and funniest thing ever. Could not be more calm and trusting with the humans even when acting like a very naughty moose and eating the human-neighbors pretty flowers.
Thank you for the moose follow up! Your posts are most informative I'm a teacher and will help children who, live in the city, by providing a glimpse of how beautiful your moose family are. They have provided joy when I've needed a pick-me-up also! I've been following them for years.They are all are adorable.
Thank you for sharing these delightful videos and for sharing your garden and flowers with them. This is so sweet. I would be happy to plant a garden just to be able to share it with them.
@edwinahc27 Moose come in our yard regularly. A year-ling came to our house almost daily for about a month last winter. My dog would bark at him and he would stay in our yard all day. I think they liked each others company:) These are neighborhood moose and they are use to dogs, children and yes even adults telling them to get out of the garden. We purposely planted flowers that moose do not eat. That was the only time a moose has ever tried to eat that plant. Thanks for your post!
:) Thats awesome .. so funny you say dont eat those & shes looking at you like huh ??? & still eats !! Love the twins ... Thanks for posting another awesome video !!
Hi wpbfjr, That is why we have flowers and not vegetables. I doubt I'd think it to be so funny if they ate my summer supply of cauliflower and stash of carrots and potatoes. But, I'm with you, I find it a small price to pay to have them visit. Besides they don't generally go after my flowers because they were specifically picked to NOT be moose food. Thanks for your post. arcticlilly arcticlilly
Yes, they're wild, but they're very acclamated to neighborhood living. Neighborhood noises don't generally scare them off, including children yelling and dogs barking or people telling them to get out of their flower beds :)
Great video. You are so blessed to see these amazing 'mooooo-sons' in your backyard. I guess your moose are like my squirrels ;) I enjoy your videos immensely. Thank you for taking the time to make this old soul sing!
@ChocolateInsanity911 Moose come to our yard regularly and eat the plentiful willow and mothers like to lay down on our hill with their calves. This winter we had an orphaned calf that would spend hours in our yard despite our pup barking at his heels. I think the calf liked the company. Glad you loved our moose! Thanks for the post. Arcticlilly
Hi DVP8196, we'd be honored to be on your blog. This happened the same evening as moose in the sprinkler. I've only seen them once since that sweet day and it was this past Saturday but a man in a truck scared them off right before she crossed the street to come into our yard. I could see baby feet in the trees.
awww i'm so jealous of you @articsooner. where i live in northern england the closest I've had to moose in my garden is a muntjac deer ha ha, where abouts do you live?
@HenryDavidT Thank you for your insightful comments!Since you noticed my husband's gentle persuasion I'm not sure that you could hear my banging on the window and yelling "STOP EATING MY FLOWERS!" When my husband came inside from videoing them, I went outside, grabbed two baseball bats, banged them together and told her to "stop eating my flowers or I am going to turn off the sprinkler". She looked at me, walked over to her twins and directly lied down on our grass.Pix are on our channel.
I came to realize that some of our flowers are medicine to wild animals: yarrow; milk thistle; rose of sharon; rose buds; green cherry ftuit; the list is long. Think of your garden as a medicine patch...and smile😂 they will be back. The birds feed the ground animals my peaches: perfect fruit from the top if the tree. I gave up... it became my offering to GOD!
MOOOOOSSSEE!!! Omizebras, I love moose so much! >.< But I have never seen one in person DDX Moosey moosey moosey moosey! Do they come to your garden often? :O
OMG !! GOSH !! HaHaaaaaaaaaaa !!! I think they find the JackPot !! HaHaaaaaaaaaaa !!! Oh ! This is so funny and not funny in the same time !! My God !! Did, they eat your all Garden ??? I hope not !! Very good video ! 10 ***** ***** Puppet Cransky !
To telling the Quinn off the forest not to eat the fower's sound's more as a wich than what is going to happening. A mosse with calv is maybee tacking a grissly ore other higher ranked preditor's then human serios ( sorry fore terribly Swed-Englich and dyslektiv spelling).
@Geethatsgr8 After my husband turned off the camera, I went outside and banged two baseball bats together to get her attention. I told her to stop eating my flowers or I was going to turn off the sprinkler. She looked at me, stepped out of the garden and pulled her babies away.Then they immediately layed down in the grass and we got the most beautiful pictures of them. One picture is on our channel as wallpaper. I think she was responsive to me because I turned the sprinkler on for them earlier.
I noticed that you didn't walk out ther and try and shoo her away - with those young uns at her side probably woulldn't be a smart thing seeing how she'll dump grizzly ... or a ford pickup truck
GOD said something like that to Adam in the garden of Eden about the 🍑 fruit 🍑 on the forbidden 🎄🌴 tree 🌴🎄 just before Eve came along and ate us all out of house, home and paradise!!! So are any of your flowers deadly poisonous or will they only make the moose's wiser??? See RU-vid video, 'Hungry Friendly Moose'. My moose prefers 🍔 hamburger buns but dislikes cherry 🍒 pies.
