Just Doing Her Thing

Displaying the enormous power in her front legs,
this Grizzly Bear casually uses the branch of a gigantic, ancient evergreen to scratch her back.

For some reason, this is one of my personal favorite shots. It shows a Yellowstone Grizzly Bear just being a Grizzly Bear in Nature.

I can understand why this moment is one of your favourite shots. The treatment has given it the style of a Beatrix Potter watercolour - which seems somehow appropriate. ~V~
