scorpionbowl Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Do you see many moose in the water? There’s a pond near my camp where they like to eat some sort of plant, like a lily pad, all you see is their head sticking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
