Bear shots

[finnbay]

Some bear shots from today. Took the images on the fly with the camera in one hand and a grandson in the other. Canon 40D 100-200mm ISO 800 f/8 @ 1/250 +2/3 EC

Ken, you lucky dog. I'd be thrilled to get shots like these of bears in the wild. It looks like a young one. Way to go.

Good stuff Ken! I like your comment about grabbing the grandson in the other hand!

Good ones, Ken. Looks like the bear was feeding pretty heavily on the clover, since it's all around him.

Great captures, man!

A true sports shooter in action, great work! Juggling grandson and camera and still getting the shot! My most exciting moment yesterday was my 300/2.8 taking a foul shot from a softball!

Thanks all. Yes, it wasn't a very big bear, but hard to tell if it was a small last year's cub, or a big this year's. Steve, you said you've seen a few this spring and you pointed out the spot where you'd seen a couple, and this was very similar.
