This once happy sleepy bear all of a sudden started to growl. At this point I was accessing the people around me and who I could outrun! Lol!! (just kidding ;) ) As I looked around to see why all of a sudden the bear was perturbed, I saw a man coming with his large dog. The bear growled until the dog headed off, and then resumed his contented position high up in the tree. A happy ending for us all! : )

Great experience!

It definitely was...and really awesome experience because I got the shot and all was good in the end! 😉😊

LOL! I would definitely be one of those people who you could very easily outrun! (I'm not supposed to run because I have artificial hips, so I'd better steer clear of encounters like this one!)

PRO

Hahaha...but I could never leave you behind!

Platinum

That could have gone sideways so easily. Happy you are safe and got a great capture !!!

When the bear first growled...I slowly started backing up. Then I saw the dog, and as it passed the bear, he/she immediately relaxed and laid back down. I took a few more shots and then headed off. Thankfully all ended well!😁

PRO

And, thank you!!!

Ultimate

A tense moment 😬 and awesome capture!

PRO

Thank you!! It took a few moments to realize he was growling (zoomed in on my back screen) ...and then I slowly started to back away. But he/she/bear was really only verbalizing displeasure with the dog. Luckily, all ended well!😊
