We had a great walk to Cascade Falls, but something happened before I even left the parking lot area. Look, over there! Thank goodness for being on this side of that deep cement dyke and not the forest side.
A momma Cinnamon Black Bear. How do I know a Momma?
I wonder what she is thinking with those soulful eyes.
She spent her time mostly sitting, looking all around, and panting. She is a huge bear, perhaps aging? Maybe the cubs are just wearing her down. Saw no little ones on the ground or in the trees. That’s OK. Seeing Momma is a treat!
Until next time my friend–be sure to give wildlife lots of space!
Wow, mamma bear at CLOSE range. Glad you survived and got the shot!!
Am not sure I’d have walked with you that day.
But you’ve got good eye’s Joy.
