I spent days in Rocky Mountain National Park looking for moose cow and calf photo opportunities. I was lucky when I came upon this pair hanging out in the Colorado river. The mama spent much time grooming her young one. It was so amusing to watch the interaction of these two. The baby was so playful and energetic. Not sure how much he liked the grooming, though!
