Providence Hospital in Anchorage is known for welcoming newborn babies into the world—but this week, it was a baby of a different kind that stole the spotlight.

On Thursday morning, a mama moose gave birth to a calf right outside the hospital.

Jeanna, a hospital employee, captured the magical moment on video from a nearby window. In the clip, the tiny calf stands for the very first time, its wobbly legs testing the world around it.

Just another reminder that nature has a beautiful way of surprising us—even in the most unexpected places.
