    Default Polar bear curiosity

    I guess my first posting was of 'Minnie' and I make no apologies for posting another one of her, as she, for me, was the 'star' of the trip, with her feisty manor.:)

    I can't help but wonder, 'what is she thinking about whilst looking at the reflection?' To the left is the dead whale carcass that the bears had been feeding on which will hopefully see them through the winter.

    Taken from a zodiac.

    Steve, Im glad you included all of the reflection, and love the curiosity look. Good detail on the fur too.

    Great depiction here Steve, with plenty of detail in the fur, nicely composed with the reflection.

    Steve,

    I think she was thinking this whale stinks and is very tough for my young teeth.

    Nice reflection, a fine example of right place right time.
