To Jehn B. and all the other fine, fine Peeps who sent these in, large moose-tongue-sized sprinkler slurps of thanks.

That first video is so happy! Tiny moose (meese?) frolicking in the water!
The first one is MUCH better if you turn the volume down.
The first one would be the cutest, but for the soundtrack.
Whenever *I'm* thirsty, I ALWAYS lick the water off the butt of the person closest to me, too.
amazing! if the momma in the first video had both of those knobular bebehs at the same time..holy moose!
I sent the moose twins one in this morning. I rather like the song with it!! I did have a smile on my face the whole time.
Moose twins! I wonder how often that happens?
Hey. My sprinkler didn't come with mooses. I'm taking it back to the store today. I guess I'll have to spring for the delux model.
these videos make me soooo incredibly happy.
thanks, C.O. you've outdone yourselves once again.
what would i do without you as part of my day? you are as addictive as niccotine.
Only the moose in the third video has truly grasped the possibilities.
I loved these videos, but the most amazing part for me was the fact that the cow in the second movie had somehow survived a broken leg. For a wild animal to survive something like that is really remarkable. Amazing and adorable!
I agree, contestant no. 3 definitely has it figured out. She's enjoying the shower/bidet/drinking-fountain possibilities to the fullest.
It's all so familiar, the first tentative run through and then the romping joy. The watchful mother who occasionally checks you over to be sure you haven't had too much. I could almost hear her say, "Get out for a while. Your lips are blue."
Meese are large!*
*brought to you by the Obvious Committee for the Obvious Observation.
Hehehe, those were great to see on a Monday morning. The last one was like a carwash for moose. Getting the undercarriage rinsed-off.
I have a yard. I have hoses. I have sprinklers. You know what I don't have? Moose. None moose. Life, once again, not fair.
Moose like to chill in swampy and shallow rivers, don't they? So I can see how sprinklers would be naturally attractive to them. The third video is definitely the most zen; despite it being the simplest one I also think it's the cutest.
I love that this is apparently a whole category of videos.
Gah-- gah-- gah--
Againe I am speeeechless.
A Møøse once bit my sprinkler ... (No realli!)
I don't even know if I can watch the second two, the first one killed me so ded. Wow.
Always awed by how "normal" moose look until they stand next to something that gives you perspective - then you see how gargantuan they are. Baby moosies are cute though..
Yeah Anne, I was thinking more like, "Kids, get out before you get all pruny!"
OK, the only thing cuter than twin meeselets frolicing in the sprinkler is said mooselings being groomed by their ginormous mama's big florply lips!
(FLORPLE:the sound made by big fat juicy loose critter-lips during an intense head-shake. Most commonly seen in canines.)
Well, as female CO posters who have a removable shower-head will know, the moose in video #3 is obviously female. ;-)
I used to live in Maine. I miss the mooses. During the fall, the tourists would stop traffic to stare at and photograph them. (Mind you, moose bites can be really nasti.)
Well female moose with antlers must be something new! ;)
I love how the second one seemed to be reverting to childhood! (and I liked the music in the first one)
the music in the first one made me sooooo sad! but then all three videos together are just grintastic. i want one!!
As Prince Charles said the other week... "One finds the old sprinkler a boon, when one has Betty Swallocks"= Sweaty B******s....Geddit?
Gosh I am taken right to Alec Baldin as Mr. Schwetty and his holiday balls...
I used to live in Alaska and every year the same Cow would have twins and bring them to the same spot in the road and we would have a moose jam as everyone would stop and take pictures (yep, even the regular lived here all my life Alaskans joined in). They are so funny to watch, such characters and these video's made me think of home...
(big sigh)
I love Mooses. Now if that first backyard can produce a basketball-playing moose or two, let me know, won't you?
(A moose bit my sister once...)
Moose definitely have twins pretty often. I used to see them all the time in Anchorage (where I grew up). Once there was a picture on the front of the Anchorage Daily News with a moose in a kiddie pool. It was amazing. They LOVE water. They're always swimming around in ponds eating the weeds that grow in the bottom. They are extremely large, and sometimes a little bit of pain... but the babies are super cute. I <3 moose.
Michelle - my thoughts exactly... contestant number 3 is definitely a man moose...
talk about squeal inducing power! Well, the first vid, I squealed when the babe kicked the ball in the beginning... all the rest I watched with a dreamy contented expression.
How freaking COOL is it to have that as a view out your window?
I've seen quite a few moose vids lately, and I'm always struck by how curious and playful they seem. It's not at all the mental image I had of them; I'd always imagined them to be rather phlegmatic, almost dour (if an animal can have those qualities). But romping about in water, playing with the balls lying around in people's yards...yes, I wants me a moose now!
I know! where do you live you have meese frolicking in your back yard?!
How big are the adults?! Dang, looked as big as an elephant!
Lemme guess. It's hawt in Maine?
Wow -- I guess Cuteoverload "addicts" hold a range of opinions ...cuz' ... While two of the above had unjoyous responses/ comments to the music...My most emphatic reaction was how lovely & soothing, the music WAS. The next reaction was in agreement with "The Obvious" Department's memo about the ENORMITY of the Mama Moose. And my third reaction, was to thoroughly enjoy the cherry on the hot fudge sundae: NTMTOM's little side reference to the pseudo-captions from M Python & the Holy Grail film -- WITH the Scandinavian 0's crossed through, no less !!! Very impressive (is it from Wingdings font, Webdings font, or from "something completely different"???)
Thanks Meg; My Monday feels very different than it did 10 minutes ago!!
:( "This video is no longer available" on every one. Pooh. Anyone else getting this?
Now all we need is a video of Ralph the Wonder Llama.
I love moose! this made my day. Thanks! And yes, I turned down the music too. ;)
YAY. OK now. Isn't that funny, how many meese find and enjoy those sprinklers. How lucky those folks are to be able to see them up close! I'm glad they appreciate their cute gangly visitors.
KBO -- for a little while, this morning, none of them would load for me. They're all OK now, though.
Ha, the last video looks like he's invented the very first moose bidet.
Well, shadowsong - I was thinking the same thing! Moosebidet!
Anthro-Annie speaking here, I think the first video is absolute unbridled joy on the bebeh meeses parts.
Mynd you - moose bites kan be pretty nasti... (snort)
Hon Glad: HAW!
PS: Was it a majestik moose?
i'm getting me one of them there fan-sprinklers so i can have meeses in my yard too.
Fabulous!
Love watching the bebbehs playing in the sprinkler - and they have Mama to watch over them. The last one? That's the car's undercarriage going through the car wash.
auntmissjenni: i totally noticed that prime example of a FLORPLE there in the first video as well.
these vids R awsum.
