Grizzlies

More from the Whale watching trip... this time a momma and two Grizzly bear cubs right on the beach! We couldn't get too close and I had to use my BIG lens (the one you saw in yesterday's photo). It looks impressive but it's heavy and hard to stabilize on a moving boat. My focus is off in this but I thought you might want to see. I took a second camera with a 70-200m lens and that's the one that got all the dolphin and whale shots you've seen. Thank you for putting my dolphin shot on the Top 20!
