Oh wow!!! I would not want to get any closer!!! Super shot! The light is brilliant on his fur and teeth and the way it is catching the edge of his muzzle and nostril! Have fun! Viv

Oh my stars! 'Not as good as [you] wanted'!!! Stop being such a nit picker - this is fan-bloody-tastic!
I'm sure he's a friendly boy and is only yawning!

My Dear Friend... You bring me so much in your images; the captures of home....
Perhaps it is time for me to come home...
Cat/Terry... I'm sure you know all the dangers with these guys but "Please remember their speed & Don't even consider climbing a tree!"
They, as you know will lay in wait... for hrs... for days... if their hungry.
Terry, I know your wife "LOVES" photography but sometimes we "Nuts" go beyond our limits in getting that "Perfect capture."
Make sure you keep an eye on your gal...:)
Cat.... Beautiful enough of a capture... I want someday soon to meet you in person.
So Please... please Keep Safe.
Loving Friend
Kelly

Not as good as you wanted !!! You must be a perfectionist ! Hope you had your pepper spray handy!! I've just finished reading a book set in Montana "The Loop" by Nicholas Evans (writer of the Horse Whisperer) its all about Wolves and the odd grizzly bear - highly recommended.

Wow, and thank you all, so much. I was so wishing that I had captured all of him, but I knew I was too close, so one shot it was. A moment I will never forget. Kelly, you are right about their speed, and thank you for your concern Mortong, I have read his books, he stayed at a little town of Augusta and would regularly visit my friends store. I enjoyed his books - and no, I forgot pepper spray Cat
