0572ex P900 streamside bear

This yearling bear was strolling down the road in the Smokies. Of course, he attracted a lot of attention, as people stopped to get out and take his photo. He strolled into the woods, hesitated and looked around once he reached the river, then swam across and scrambled up the hillside on the other bank.

 

The light was poor, and he was in constant motion--away from me. This was the best shot of his face that I was able to capture.

 

This was the 3rd bear we saw this visit--- the other 2 tried raiding our garbage cans at midnight. Too dark to get any sort of shot--- but magnificent to watch them.
