Grizzly cub shakes off water after fishing in lifting fog.
I spent a week at Chilko Lake trying to photograph interesting pics of grizzly bear. It was the middle of fall, with great color, but we had rain, hail, fog, and mist through our time there. We got to know the bears behaviors by watching them over time. One iconic shot I really wanted to get was the whole bear (not just face) doing the head shake after fishing that is reminiscent of their after fishing habit.
