Lake Tahoe black bear

Was out looking for bears in the fall. They come up Taylor Creek to eat the Kokanee salmon.

excellent shots, that looks like a large bear

with a 200mm on that first one.... you was close.....

Thanks Rick, this one was around 300 lbs, and Steve, we were about 20 ft. away from eachother, this is crop, but it was close. He never looked at me, just was walking to his next fishing spot. I've been closer, by accident, at night, that was scary

Great shots!

WOW, those are awesome shots. Do you ever go to Mammoth and capture some?

Thanks for the comments everyone Epic, nah, the only time I go to Mammoth is to board or bike, and I get about 100-150 days of boarding a year (pro ski patroller) so I don't go too often for that.

Very nice captures!

First one is very nice, second one looks soft.
