Focused
This bear is clearly focused on having a "berry" good lunch! In fact, he was so focused that he got too far out on a branch and ended up slipping/falling to the ground. Here, I would estimate the bear was about 15 feet off the ground. The dense branches cushioned the bear's somewhat controlled fall, and it was not injured. Fairly soon after it began falling, I quickly headed back to my car! I got this essentially eye-level shot due to a steep embankment at the roadside. Very exciting to get my first bear shot in the wild! This shot was obtained on the Moose-Wilson Road just outside of Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.
