Description
Shot of a black bear in Lassen Volcanic National Park. The majestic creature was absolutely laying waste to a rotting dead lodgepole, presumably looking for grubs and termites. This is one of the rare occasions I actually saw a bear before it saw me (I've seen alot of bear rumps running across meadows over the years). After grabbing a shot, I walked away and let the wonderful creature resume its meal.
I'll also post this image in a 4X5 aspect, suitable for a more common 8X10 print, in addition to this square aspect version.

Thank you, Eric! Short of a sow with cubs black bears are usually pretty mellow and if you've ever seen one run across an open field you know that your only hope would be outrunning the person you're with because you won't outrun the bear 😂

Perfect wonderful shot, Mike! I guess I also would walk away (a bit faster) after the shot :-)

This image is adorable! It's funny because as soon as I saw the image before I even saw the title my brain said "Peek-a-boo"
