While we were watching the bears in Anan Creek, Alaska, this black bear snuck up behind us and took a sniff. This was from about 10 yards away. There is a cliff on the bank opposite the observatory at Anan Creek, Alaska.  Bears follow various paths down to the water, over logs and between the rocks. A bear pauses to check out the audience, Anan Creek, Alaska. Yawning, I think, Anan Creek, Alaska. Lunch.  Anan Creek, Alaska. Another look at the bear behind us, Anan Creek, Alaska.
Funny moment on the Misty Fjords cruise - the captain announced with great excitement that a bear could be seen.  Everyone rushed to the rail and started snapping away with their little instamatics.  This shot is with a 400mm lens, which is three times bigger than the zoom lens on the typical consumer camera.  It might have been more exciting if I had not been at Anan Creek three days earlier. Here's a last look at that bear that tried to jump me, Anan Creek, Alaska. Not a good day for the fish, Anan Creek, Alaska.
