Ursus americanus cinnamomum
Hi everyone, I wanted something nice for my 100th contribution to thr great Project Noah. Here is a Cinnamon bear, sighted when I went hiking and exploring the Rockies in Alberta. I hope you like it. Take care!
I was walking slowly and silently beside a swamp near Jasper twon, when I heard the crack of a branch. I turned my head, and there he was, 20meters away. I slowy walked backward and talked to him while taking these pictures. It was a great moment to me. I have written an article about Wildlife that I encountered in Alberta, but I need to add more info and re-post larger images. Here is the link if you like Wildlife photos :) http://www.ansermoz-photography.com/what...

It has highlights!
Great series and description Frederic!
Thank you Muckpuk! Yes, it was intense!
Very nice and lucky!
Thank you Suzmonk! I'm glad you like it, funnily, until I posted it, I thought it was a 'brown' black bear, but searching for more info, I found out that there is actually a name for this color phase of the American black bear!
It's great to be able to put a name on it finally :)
Great choice for your 100th spotting ... congratulations!
Thank you Maria, hopefully more spottings are coming!
Very cool spotting and congratulations on your 100th Noah spotting!
