Mama Bear

This mama bear was in the woods just beyond the bog. She had three cubs along with her.
I came upon them quite unexpectedly and I'm fairly certain they did not know I was there, at least initially.
This is not a great shot but the best I could manage through the trees and from a relatively safe distance.

Oh, wow! Not sure I'd want to be that close to a bear, but that's a great shot!

Great shot of mama bear through the leaves. I'm sure the safe distance was best, especially considering the three cubs.

Supposed to read well timed. I should never rely on autocorrect.

This is a fantastic photo, Kevin. Well I Ed to catch her between the trees.
