Grizzly sighting by the highway, just outside Nelson, B.C. May/9th/2011

May 21, 2011

Monday morning, driving the kids to school, I caught a glimpse of a ‘fur ball’ by the tree line. We had barely driven a kilometer out of town, when we saw two grizzlies (couple years old maybe) hung out for at least 5 minutes. One of them was pretty much hiding in the bush and making all sorts of sounds as the other poked around for something to eat.  After much fidgeting with my camera, I was able to zoom in and get a couple of good pictures, as well as, this 15 seconds video, before my memory card was full!  Still feel lucky!  (You will notice the sound of the cars zooming by. I am filming from a safe distance across the highway. Enjoy the sight!
