p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Bears of Alaska

What a great week we had with the bears of Lake Clark National Park and Preserve in Alaska last month.

I did a full trip report detailing all the bears (and especially cubs) that we saw in this beautiful location. It seemed that all the sows had cubs this year. The mating season must of been pretty busy.

CC always welcome !

Up close and personal

Swim Lessons - Two spring cubs show mom they are good swimmers.

This is why I love Lake Clark. Bears and Landscapes

Great to watch the cubs play and learn their fighting skills

A cool behavior of the area is clamming. A bear dig for clams in the tidal flats

All of them are very good. I'm partial to the first and fourth. Good job getting the eyes in focus in #1 considering that big nose probably grabbed your focus point.

Thank you. It is always a thrill to be this close to such beautiful animals. They will typically come 10-20 feet from us with out any concern.
