Playtime

These two Coastal Brown Bear cubs were playing out on the tidal mud flats in Katmai National Park, Alaska. They were over a quarter of a mile away so we put on our longest lens configurations to capture the action. Even at high magnification, this is a cropped image. Sometimes in order to photograph a great moment we have to shoot in less than optimal conditions. Still, this image captures a fun little interaction between the two siblings. Remember! They look cute now but in a few years they will be full grown Grizzlies!
