Description
A grizzly cub can spend up to three years with his mother as she teaches him everything she knows about survival. This cub-of-the-year watches in earnest as his mother digs for voles under the snow. Although unsuccessful in this attempt, mother grizzly has identified an important food source for her cub which he will remember into adulthood.

There is an increase of bear shots on FAA of late and I admire anyone willing to get close enough. This is a great photo!

Many thanks Robert! I was using a supertelephoto lens, so I wasn't as close as this looks;-)
