This Yukon grizzly was heading the same direction so we traveled together for a ways. He pretty much ignored me, focused on fattening up before his big slumber began.

Was snowing, blowing and frigid on the 30th of August.

Glad I wasn't wearing shorts....

Thanks for taking a look. Always appreciated!

No party for another 3 weeks in BC. But Brown bear knows what to do to have fun... he might teach Little bear a few things...

Ourson porte son masque mais il veut faire des bricolages et va enseigner a Petit ours comment faire de beaux dessins et couper le papier !

I feel like a virtual trip to Alaska. This brown bear wading in the Brooks River in Katmai National Park kicks off a three shot series of Alaskan wildlife.

Capture a photo of Brown Bear resting on a log is a photo worth keeping. patience pays off, as well as knowing your camera gear!

This Brown Bear takes a brief break from searching from salmon to pose for a portrait. Lower Brooks River, Katmai National Park, Alaska. I think this bear's "expression" seems to be a mix of innocence and curiosity.

Starting my archive dive with this 10+ year old shot of a 2 1/2-year-old Alaskan Brown Bear.

This youngster was one of twins which were on their own for the first time. It was strolling on the beach in Lake Clark National Park.

As this Alaskan Brown Bear enters the Brooks River, it glances in the direction of other bears down-stream, taking care to give them their space.

He's called Maxi. When he stands up, he towers at 8 feet. He is a brown bear based at Wolds Wildlife park and whilst I have visited him before, he;s usually cavorting or eating, or swimming... today we had a chat. He's a wonderful lad though I prefer to be on this side of the fence.

A Brown Bear comes out of the dense vegetation along a river in Katmai National Park, Alaska. Fishermen and photographers along the banks of the river need to be alert as the bears' appearance can be rather sudden.

This Coastal Brown Bear was cooling down on a very warm day by lying in some shallow water, when something caught its attention. Not for long however. He settled back down right after this shot was taken.

Today starts a non-themed series on my photo stream. The only thing the next few posts will have in common is that I will pick them randomly based on what moves me each morning.

It looks like these three have identical poses! The leg positions are the same but not with the same exact legs. A brown bear and her two cubs of the year.
