This large black bear charged an elk several times while we watched. The elk did not leave the area and seemed to be protecting something behind her. He eventually gave up and wandered down the hill.

Long lens and from the car, Laurie. He was at least 200 feet away.

Gayle, this looks like a bit too close for comfort. I hope you were using your long lens!

Must be really exciting to watch all these animals there! Nice catch!

Splendid shot Gayle!

That confrontation had to be exciting to watch. I'm glad it ended in a standoff. Fine shot, Gayle.
Best to you,
Dick:)

Wonderful image, Gayle. Looks like it wintered very well.

That is the way wars should be fought. Make your intention known and if not received well leave. Or something to that effect.
What a handsome creature he is.

Great capture, this bear looks huge.

Terrific image, Gayle! It seems a little early for an elk calf!!
