Country Mama,
I'm referring to Ivan saying he has been charged by 4 bears.

I've been thinking that if, my wife and I go back to Alaska, we need to visit your area and maybe hang around with you.
I'm rethinking the hanging around with you part......

That could be a problem. I will just have to make sure we bring someone slower than me :-D

Brown bears are extremely dangerous, please do not follow my example. All photos taken in the wilderness of Southeast Alaska, the bears are of course wild.
You will of course post the picture of the bear attack when it comes. Please note I said when not if....... Alaskan Do not become a news item...... use the longest lens you got. BTW great shots

Ivan,
What was your reaction/response or thought at the moment, when the first bear charged you?
Can you describe the other 3 charges?
Did you do this on purpose? Suddenly, found yourself in that close/situation?
Just trying to understand. I've never talked to anyone who has done this once, much less, 3 more times.

I would take photos with Alaskan. He can use his puny 300mm. I'm going to connect my camera to my 8 inch refractor telescope and have a good pair of running shoes on and the truck running. Sure, I'll take pictures of him and his bears, not a problem.

terrific set! #4 looks positively menacing! you wouldn't catch ME within 15 feet of a brownie unless it was stuffed! though by most accounts they're not likely to charge "just because", i'd still rather not take the chance...

You've done it again with your fine photography, thank you.
Incidentally, you list the Grizzly and Brown Bear with the same latin name. Are these the same bear?
