This black bear sat on the edge of the river studying the fish behaviors for a couple of minutes. Then like a dog, poised itself to spring into action... body tense, back end wavering back and forth then with all her might lept into the creek and pursued the salmon with all her might! She never caught a single fish, poor thing!

I like this shot because it shows the power, motion and intensity of her execution.

Such a surprise after not seeing the blur on the thumbnail.
A masterpiece of a photo Jim.

Very Cool circular motion in the water!
very abstract!
We had a Mom and Two cubs in the backyard, last week.
By the time I got my camera they were gone.:(

Marvelous circular motion... I can't tell if it is the water or the bear's fur but it looks great. I'm sure her luck will change.
