If you got this shot, you couldn't have missed much better! What a capture!!! Bummer about having to remove the tree. Would be nice to see the original.

This is just adorable, and how unusual with triplets. The one on the back peeking over the shoulder really sends this over the top. Sorry it was at the expense of your well being but glad you survived the ordeal! I'd also like to see the original with the trees intact.

Hi

I am not sure I’d go that far to take a shot – but it is an impressive shot

A wonderful view – I hope you recuperated quickly

All the best
Matthew

It's a wonder how the little ones survive those conditions. Excellent shot. Hope all is well.

You gave me the impression that your illness kept you from getting any good shots! If you plan to continue cloning out the trees directly behind the bears, you might as well get rid of them all and let me use the shot for making cards.
