These pictures are from a trip to Yellowstone in the summer of 2004, the first time in my life I saw black bears.

Walking Small
A black bear cub walks along a log in a field of wildflowers. The cub was with its mother and another cub, walking near the road that leads from Mammoth to the Roosevelt area.

Time To Say Goodbye
I had spent a week at Yellowstone in July of 2004, and this was literally the last picture I took on my way out of the park. I had encountered this mother and her two cubs on two other occasions the previous couple of days, but this was the least satisfying as the Yellowstone Throng had stopped to watch her as well, and people just got far too close for anyone's good. Still, it was funny to watch the two young cubs, one stuck close to its mother like it had the day before, while the other stayed fairly close behind, but always doing its own thing.
