Beauty of a shot and I think I would have been nervous as well.

Sweet --- I love the standing pose. The inquisitive head tilt and wildflowers make it a standout (to coin a phrase.)

Hello Corey

Great capture, showing the inquisitive Bears Nature with a Nice stare back!:) The drooping front paws showing off those Impressive Claws is an added Bonus!
Well exposed and Nicely framed in its Natural Environment.

Thanks for sharing.

Nicely done! A lovely subject with excellent detail ( I want to get that tick off her face!) and such a nice setting among the wildflowers.
