Just the other day, I was thinking about the red fence eyesore that is in our side yard. It had probably been a dog kennel at some point. We've kept it up as Janelle has been using it for her compost pile, hoping to discourage moose from getting into it.
I received a text (including pictures) from Janelle today showing that a momma moose and her calf had invaded our yard, gone into the enclosure, and were feasting on the compost. They stayed in the yard almost the entire day, alternating who was eating (and occasionally lying on) the compost pile. We had to be careful when walking the dogs due to their presence.
I saw another moose running down the street in downtown Soldotna today as I was picking up Trevor. Ironically, I had just been thinking to myself yesterday that it had been a while since we had seen a moose. I wonder if they were out in such force today due to the warm (almost 50 degree) temperatures today.
They certainly were hungry.
