Woke up to this young bull feeding on the succulent greens (ok, weeds!) in my yard.

At first casual glance, I just thought the moose was knee-high in greens. Then I read the Flickr title and looked more closely to see the moose was actually kneeling to graze. Until then, I thought moose stood up to graze grass, like the other grazers I know. (I guess they spend most of their feeding time browsing on willows.) Thanks for teaching me something new. Nice photo, too. Nice rendition of the colors and well done composition. And nice capture of the pose of the moose.

I was suprised to see him kneeling, too! He was hanging out with a cow (the rut will be starting soon) and she didn't kneel at all.

We won't comment on the succulent greens in your yard if you won't comment on ours. He's a pretty boy for sure. You lucky man to see him in your yard.

I'd sell my John Deere in a heart beat if I could have these guys around my house to do the job.

And at least your weeds are succulent looking. My weeds are dried up and burnt.

Very nice shot!

If you grew your grass longer, he wouldn't have to kneel. But, then you wouldn't get all this dialogue. Cool shot.

Interestingly the cow hanging out with him never knelt once!

What a nice surprise, is this common or not?

Really cool shot to see him bowing to feed, well done.

We do get a lot of moose in the backyard. We have essentially 10 unfenced acres. I've never seen one kneel to eat like this though.
