Talking Moose in The Broads

My neighbor and I got out the binoculars and realized that we were looking at a large set of antlers just above the lake surface. We watched its journey until we couldn't make it out any longer. We got concerned when a Baja came roaring up the open water, but it missed the moose (doubt it even saw him). So, when did you see moose scat? Does it mean he came back "home" after some shopping in Wolfboro?
It was the beginning of August this year.
Seeing a moose in The Broads is a precious experience and one with antlers, wow! We caught this one back in 2003 just after we got to the island.
