Fierce mama!

I love this little series of photos. In the first photo the mom bear on the edge (second from left) was awesome at catching the very few fish that did jump. She had two cubs they are butt to butt. When she would catch a fish they would immediately descend on her and the fish. There was another bear, Mr Opportunity, would wait for the smaller cub to get his little scrap and he would go after the littler one and try to take his bit of fish. In the last photo you see mom getting tired of it and she gives the bully the what for! We all cheered for fierce mama standing up for her cubs!
Then she does it again!
Then she does it again!
Quite the crowd when the fish are not running, and there is a hierarchy on which bear gets the good spot on the falls.

One cub was much more aggressive and wanted to catch a fish himself. But was all to happy when mom did.

A fascinating pictorial story, yet every image could stand on it's own! Well done!
