Your daily bear photo, courtesy of yours truly.

Context for new followers: I took this photo in September during the salmon run on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. This bear was keeping an eye on salmon going up a stream, hoping to catch a few of them. As you can judge from its body shape, it is very successful. 😁

Note that I do not approach bears, I use a telephoto lens. I practice ethical photography.
