I guess the alternative would be a concerted effort by 30 or 40 Magpie's. That would actually be scarier than the moose.

What beast did this?
When we got back from Moab, we found one of our bid feeders lying in the driveway, beat up a bit. We found the post it hangs on looking like this.
Damn! That's a pretty solid 1/2 inch metal bar, sunk down into a 4x4. This is not one of those cheap little WalMart feeder hangers. Something with some heft must have grabbed the feeder and yanked. Then yanked again. All I can imagine is either a moose or a buck. I didn't find poop from either one though.

Yikes! It's bad enough when raccoons yank things around or haul away feeders. This episode would make me leery about going out in the dark!
