Another moose spotted in Westchester County

About 15 years ago in the dead of winter, I got on the NYS Thruway at the Kingston Exit 19 heading south.  It was early morning, about 10 degrees and there was snow on the ground.  As I crossed over the Esopus creek shortly after getting on the Thruway, I swore I caught a glimpse of a moose standing in the creek.  The water wasn't frozen and there was a mist above it that made it hard to see the animal, but it wasn't a deer.  I didn't want to jam on the brakes and back up on that highway, so I kept going.  I tried to convince myself it must've been something else, but to this day I still think it was a moose.
