Some days, things just line up...

There are days when everything lines up for me, quite literally. In this case, it was a trumpeter swan and a bull moose in the same frame. First I saw the swan, which was surprising since I have not seen one here in Eagle River Valley since April 10 of this year. As I was photographing the swan I heard something crashing in the distance, which caught both of our attention. Shortly thereafter the moose came into view, walked along the water’s edge and stopped right behind the swan, setting up a rare photo opportunity. In the midst of all this a pair of greater yellowlegs flew onto the scene but I politely told them they would to have to wait their turn to be photographed.
