No antlers. I can't tell if it's a male or a female. But on the assumption it's the former, I'll go with:

"Pointless Bull"

With this nose, I can smell Kevin's Café from 2 miles.

I'm pretty sure I've got the right of way here

I hope that following the moose in the boat to take pictures didn't cause her to get tired from having to swim more avoiding the boat following her. I really enjoyed these pictures but just want to also mention that we need to be concerned about how we address these lovely creatures in their habitat.

It looks to me like the moose isn't swimming away from the photog. Moose can swim for miles. Their hollow fur helps them float. They are very good swimmers. Nor does it look like the camera boat is too close. I address them, "Hello Mr. Moose".

I did look at the other photos and she did appear to be changing direction and you can see a part of the boat in one photo. I don't mean to imply this is what happened, and I also didn't want to sound soap boxish (is that a word?) just general thoughts and concerns. I know they can swim quite far, how far had she gone before ths photos? Not trying to create a problem and let's get back to the captions
