Black Bear at Banff

Look what appeared at the side of the Bow Valley Parkway in Banff.
I was lucky enough to see a Grizzly last year in Yellowstone but this was my first Black Bear. It was quite interested in having its photograph taken as you can see.

How amazing, this must have been one of those unforgettable magic moments.

Good lord Gayle! I hope it was a very long zoom lens! Black bears can be unpredictable.

It is a long zoom and I kept well away.
