We photographed our new favorite bear again yesterday in Yellowstone National Park. We came upon him grazing near the road, then we followed him along the road until he discovered an old elk carcass that was starting to emerge from a melting snow bank. He was excited to find the carcass and dug it out of the snow, but seemed a bit disappointed that it had already been picked over pretty good. The photographers were anything but disappointed!
