Out for a little walk? Geez I am lucky to see and Robin on my little walks! Beautiful colors and details. Excellent lighting and composition. Were just a bit scared coming face to face with a huge Brown Bear? You are one brave woman, Tamara! #504286

Pssst....it may be brown, but it's a Black Bear. Love the clarity and colors.

Ask Ken about Bear identification. He is an expert. #3173485

Dennis thought he saw a deer in Washington state but I told him it was a bear, and it was a bear. Just like the one in your picture. Great shot, Tammy. #3173496
