Our lumbering bear soon found a soft spot riverside and just to sleep as we scanned the beautiful Alaskan landscape.

Katmai Beauty and Friendships
•
Shout out to Katmai memories with Stan, Len’s comedic sidekick, Alyson, and my own personal NP Dr Nolene! The bears may have been the subjects of this year’s story, but the people made the experience!

Misty Morning and Lumbering Bears
•
Our last morning on Katmai was misty, slow, and a little spooky. No grand performances, just bears being bears. A quiet and beautiful farewell to the wild. ❤️

It is time to start my farewell to Belle and her Coy. I only have one or two more videos and very few still shots left of them. The last time we saw them close up was night three.I’m really grateful for all the pictures I have of these two

Back Together with Belle 🐻
•
Yesterday brought splashes, fishing, and Shaggy Bear’s arrival. Today, a quieter look at the bears leads us back to Belle and her two cubs in the shallows.

More from our second day in Katmai.

Splashes, Fishing & Shaggy Bear 🐻💦
•
From flying water to quiet concentration, the fishing brings plenty to watch. Then Shaggy Bear comes strolling in.
•
A few more moments from Katmai Day 2—each with a story of its own.

One Last Snapper
•
Snuggles over, tide coming in, but Belle takes her time to grab one more snapper. Little girl coy always keeping watch while the little boy just keeps crying.

Snuggle Time

Our day 2 on Katmai is coming to a close. What better way to end the day than to observe Belle cuddling with her Coy on the beach after a lovely fishing session.

Running after fish, running from other bears, running to catch up with mum - running is finally beginning to take a toll on our little coy. They finally wind down and snuggle in next to their mom for a little rest before they move on to find their evening sleep #Katmai #AlaskaBears

Many Faces of Belle
•
Belle is the first grizzly I’ve photographed that when I look at her face I literally see a teddy bear face. For this next series. I’m looking at the many faces of Belle.

And They’re Off!
•
It began with two little bears walking quietly side by side. Then came a playful interruption—and suddenly they were racing down the beach at full speed! Swipe to watch the mischief unfold.

In Step
•
Different colours and different personalities, but always exploring together. Belle’s cubs paused, watched and wandered along the beach—often matching each other step for step.

After a long evening of fishing, Belle’s cubs are tired, and her little boy settles in to nurse. As the golden light quickly fades into blue hour, his dark-furred sister watches quietly, patiently waiting her turn with Mum.

Take a Walk
•
Belle finished her fish, gathered her coy, and walked to another fishing spot. She walked right in front of us. It was a quiet moment with our lenses in as far as they would go. Love recalling these moments.

Belle Gets Her Salmon

I don’t know what it is about wildlife eating that fascinates photographers, but it was a delight to photograph Belle catching and eating her salmon.

In Step they Go

Experience to still shots. These coy moving as one in the Alaskan wild keep my spirit with them. Even now after being home awhile, I am transported right back. Enjoy!

Little Personalities
•
I can’t get enough of Mama Belle’s coy. This little girl (dark) and boy (lighter) move in tandem and seem to think as one.

Fishing Rest

Even busy bear families need a quiet pause. After fishing, Mama and her cubs gathered close beside the water—resting, watching and simply being together.

Bearly Behaving

One of my favourite surprises when going through all my photos. This little one is quite the clown. So much more to come with this little girl.
