Although it looks like a pretty creature, I wouldn't like being close :)
Was he fishing?

Still waiting for my first bear sighting. @trang and I didn't see any on the John Muir Trail.

Currently, I'm in New Hampshire and there are plenty of black bears, but it's rare to spot them.

One bear, Mink, is becoming somewhat of a celebrity after returning to town since it was transported 100s of miles away. It's incredible she was able to find her way back. Her navigational intelligence is remarkable.

Amazing animals. Appear to be sluggish in their movement but they are lightning fast!

I'm half-expecting it to have slipped and tumbled into the drink in the next frame as the bank looks a bit precarious XD
