Black Bear Quints

I got another wonderful email. This one features a Black Bear sow with five cubs. This time, unlike the eagles over lake Tapps, I found the site of the wildlife photographer who took the photos.
I think these pictures have been circulating for a long time. If you haven't seen these excellent pictures of a rare multiple birth, they and some other very nice wildlife photography are at Tom Sears' site.

Have a lovely day!

Those are such great pictures and you are wonderful to link to the photographer and let him have credit for his work.

Thanks, Linda -- it is so seldom that the photographer gets the credit for wonder pictures that circulate via e-mailing lists!

I'd not seen those before ... Thanks for the prompt to smile, Linda!

Thanks for your comments!
I didn't have time to look at many of Sears' pictures, but I hope to get back to them:)

That's incredible! Amazing that the mother bear was able to find enough food to rear all five cubs! Great pictures.

Wow! That was truly amazing! I think the Mama Bear's name should be Myrtle (as in Fertile Myrtle! hehe).

Excellent once-in-a-lifetime photos for Tom Sears for sure.

Thanks for sharing this info and link.
