A wild black bear I had a chance to meet while traveling north in BC. I think she or he was just waking up from the long winter sleep.

Outstanding Image of this Black bear, Eti ! Great title too. Ive run Into two black bears in the states while hiking, majestic, but I give them much respect.Your right about not showing fear with all animals. Like /Vote

Excellent shot. The way she's looking at the camera you kind of have to hope she's a vegetarian.

WOW Eti! Magnificent capture ! I would be petrified if I came face to face with him! I would be scared he would make me his main meal! v/f
Eti Reid replied:
I strongly believe dear Tessa, that all the animals can sense the fear....I do respect them, but havent show any signs of fear and thanks GOd no accidents for all these years:)
