We have been very fortunate with bears this spring. There has not been a day that we have not found opportunities to photograph bears. We even have bears at the lodge.
This sub-adult was within 40-50 feet of the lodge when we photographed him. He paused in his grazing to take a look at us.

And, then he stood…

Back at the flats later in the morning it was cool to watch the behavior of this bear as he caught a whiff of a bear behind us.

While it looks like he is coming right at us, he is really focused on the other bear behind us.
