Great shot. How far away were you? I'd hate to be given the job to attach numbers to these guys.

Yes, especially as he seems to be shouting "I am not a number I am a free bear"!
I guess you were in a car?

The bear was about 50 feet off the trail & my wife was behind me with 2 cans of bear spray. The car was maybe 1/4 of mile away. There were some other hikers on the same trail just ahead of us & I think they managed to walk pass without noticing it. The bear was eating the grass, it looked up & watched as I took the photo and then just carried on eating. We didn't stay there for long !!!
Paul, I guess your quote is from 'The Prisoner' TV series; nice one.

Super shot Keith and a nice back-story. But you just don't want to be around when it sees itself in a mirror!
