MicheleV_AKThis pretty black bear must be staying close to this tree for Lacee Johnson to get photos of her. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alaska</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaWildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaWildlife</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaBlackBear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaBlackBear</a>

MicheleV_AKI'm quite sure Lacee Johnson was pretty far away to get this shot! It's the same female black bear she's been photographing for a few days. So beautiful and healthy. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alaska</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaWildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaWildlife</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaBlackBears" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaBlackBears</a>

MicheleV_AKWe saw a moose mom and yearling today on our walk. It was a very gloomy, windy day so this brightened our walk immensely! <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alaska</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaWildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaWildlife</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Moosetodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Moosetodon</a>

MicheleV_AKOn our walk yesterday, hubby got to see these magnificent creatures and I didn't, but I am super glad he took photos. Looks like a momma moose and a yearling. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alaska</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaWildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaWildlife</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Moosetodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Moosetodon</a>

MicheleV_AKThis beautiful black bear was spotted by photographer Lacee Johnson this afternoon near a high school in Anchorage. Stunning photos, gorgeous black bear. 💗 <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Alaska" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alaska</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaWildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaWildlife</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlaskaBlackBears" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AlaskaBlackBears</a>

JeffOh what big claws you have!” Coastal brown bears are such an amazing animal to see in the wild. These large omnivores spend most of their summers feeding on grasses, sedges and different berries that grow throughout Alaska. But once July comes around, millions of salmon flood into river systems of coastal Alaska, and these bears go on a fish eating extravaganza. Observing different fishing habits of these bears shows immense individuality of each animal. Some go for a smash and grab, others patiently wait for salmon to swim underneath them and quickly go in for the grab, while others splash around in utter overwhelming confusion, sending hundreds of salmon swimming for their lives. Coastal brown bears and grizzly bears are the same species, but brown bears are defined by having access to salmon runs. While grizzly tend to live more inland where food is more scattered and they are forced to travel further and be more protective of their food sources. This bear fished in a river systems in Katmai National Park, I watched him for over 2 hours patiently wading through the meandering water, and every so often standing up to get a better look at where the hordes of salmon were swimming. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bears?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bears</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/alaskawildlife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alaskawildlife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wildlifephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wildlifephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/katmai?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#katmai</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/brownbears?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#brownbears</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturephotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturephotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/salmon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#salmon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/animals?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#animals</a>

MicheleV_AKThis moose has an ear tag. He's also being quite chill on a Sunday afternoon. We had about an inch of snow yesterday, but it's already gone here.
