We finally had some good bear photo ops yesterday in Waterton Lakes National Park. In fact, we photographed five different black bears! The first was a black black bear crossing a meadow in not-so-good light. The second was a cinnamon black bear that was right by the road (above) in great light. The last three were a black-with-cinnamon-flanks black bear sow with two black cubs up on a hill with low light.
