Hi: Smashing pix of bear,contrast, sharp focus, color rendition are all 10/10. Pleasure to look & no doubt you all had enjoyable time, so did I.

So despite having a nasty flu, I took them out past the mine, where there are 4 bands of wild horses. Not the most exotic of beasts, but the marmots are already hibernating, and the horses are virtually guaranteed to be found. Along the way, I spotted a police 4x4, by the side of the road, and as I approached he put on his lights. Damn! I was sure I hadn't been speeding. As I drew closer, we discovered they were the fish police (Conservation officers) and their lights were to warn us. They'd spotted a bear by the side of the road, contentedly munching in a blueberry patch! I pulled over and we all watched him, with fascination, for a full 10 minutes, until he eventually wandered away. He can be seen by going to http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/bear-4.htm Comments, criticism appreciated. Thanks for looking. -- David Young, Logan Lake, BC CANADA.
