Bear at SF Zoo
Warren's bear picture reminded me of some pictures I took at the new bear exhibit at the San Francisco Zoo a couple of weeks ago. You can really see the bear claws in this pic. Taken with D70 and 80-200mm f2.8 lens.
Which reminded me of a bear encounter we had while camping at Yosemite last year. A car was driving by our camp site and then stopped. Being in the evening, the headlights were quite annoying. The driver rolled down his window and asked us, "Do you know there's a bear behind you?" Just as we turn around, a bunch of other campers are banging pots and pans to scare the bear away. We never saw. Talk about a close encounter.
Sorry I've been absent for so long. Been very busy. We will be going on a cruise to Alaska in a few days so hopefully will have some nice pix to share with everyone.
