I visited Riding Mountain National Park for a couple of days hoping to take a few pictures of elk and moose which sadly I didn't come across one. However, the black bear made quite the appearance. They were grazing on grass and dandelions along some of the roads that pass through the park. There was no shortage of black bears I am guessing they will disappear into the forest once the leaves and berries are more plentiful.

Very nicely captured Debra. This guy looks so healthy and you have been able to capture hm with such clarity and detail. Outstanding. I will have to make a concerted effort to visit this park hopefully soon.

Wow! Colors are awesome on that shot Debra. The big black bear realy make it well in front of the white birch trees. Great focus. I do like the attitude on the bear's face (vewed with the zoom option). I know you are used to them in the west side of the Canada. We have some too but they are my worst fear.
