I went to the Moose-Wilson Road 3 days in a row looking for the Sow and two Cubs that were reported to be regular visitors. No bears, but lots of Robins and Waxwings eating the berries that the bears hadn't eaten.

Wow...love the colors! Great detail and the berry in his mouth is a definite bonus. Might crop just a little from the top. Great image Richard! 8)

Looks very grainy. You sure you didn't have provia 400 in that thing :wink:
Leaves make a great setting and you caught the berry at just the right moment.

Nice feeding/behavior shot, Richard.
The color is great and the close up comp works well.

Wonderful colors and awesome details! :) I would like to see some more room to the left as composition is a bit centred as presented IMO.
