from the weekend...

[forestgnome]

2alsces and I have met a few times out on the Kanc recently while stalking moose. Sunday, she spotted a bear. I never would have seen him. Thanks!

He was working an old log for insects...














Here's a big healthy bull...






















some spring wildflowers, shot with the telephoto because one of my cameras is in the shop (the one I use for closeup and scenic)

trilliums...









trailling arbutus...





This yearling bull is in trouble. F@G explained that he has lost too much weight, causing his eyes to look like this. I hope he makes it. I'll be keeping an eye on him as much as I can.














I hope he makes it. He has the biggest bell I've ever seen on a yearling.

happy trails

Great shots as always Patrick. Having to use the telephoto for the flower close-ups didn't seem to hurt anything. Beautiful images of the trilliums in particular. Out of curiosity, where did you spot the bear?

awesome pics Patrick. The last Moose looks like he is in a trance.

Fantastic pictures as usual Patrick. I really hope the yearling gets better. Please keep us informed if you don't mind. Thanks for posting

Boy that last fellow looks sad.
