Sleeping

Mother and 2 year old cub asleep, Wahlenburgfjiord, Svalbard.

 

We had the privilege of watching these bears for almost 2 hours from our ship. They wandered to the edge of the ice cliff, lay down and the cub suckled. Then they slept. Eventually they got up and started to wander off. We saw them disappear into the immense whiteness.
