Morning Breath 91A7587
Despite it still being summer, morning temperatures can be low enough to see your breath condense. On a windless morning the effects are more pronounced, as the condensation doesn’t immediately blow away. When this boar (male brown bear) saunters across the beach silhouetted by a rising sun, his breath is revealed with an orange glow. Newest photographic hardware and software make images like this, that might previously have been unpalatable, beautifully crisp and detailed.
We found the bear leaving the beach. As soon as he saw us, he turned and circled back. It’s unusual for the bears to change their activity based on human presence so we suspected an issue and kept a great distance. Later that morning we found him feasting on the remains of a seal he had cashed on the beach above the tide line. Seals are not bear prey and it is likely that the seal died either after becoming entrapped in a fishing net or shot, illegally by a fishing boat (a practice that is all too common).
