Grizzly bear!

Wednesday, Court went out fishing and Albie and moi went to the Alaskan Wildlife Conservation Center. It wasn't all it was cracked up to be, but still provided some nice photo ops. I'll start off with this lone, male grizzly bear who was quite the entertainer. We were quite lucky in that just as we were going to leave, an employee came over to feed him some liver, so we got in some good shots of that. All grizzly pics here.

At first he seemed a bit bored, playing with everything in sight.SANY0014

On the one hand, seeing a bear come running towards you, is a frightening sight. On the other hand, not so much when he ends up looking like this.

He was scratching the ground impatiently.

He got his piece of liver, which he proceeded to lick thoroughly before biting into it.
