Beautiful scenery marred by a humpback whale in the distance. A perfect day for whale watching calm enough to get good photos but not so much sun that is is impossible to get the photos. I comment about the whale in the distance because if you have read much of our posting you will know that the norm is much closer and this posting was about the scenery.
In late May and early June the grizzlies show up in the Glendale River estuary and along the shores on Knight Inlet. They have come out of hibernation having lost a significant amount of their body fat and are looking for food. Some bears are in much better shape, after a long winter, than other bears. This male grizzly is in good shape and ready for the breeding which takes place at this time of the year. He is also the reason the mother grizzlies keep their cubs away from the river estuary.
