A couple of photos of a bald eagle from last week seems like the perfect photo to share on this fourth of July weekend.

Every year I strive to capture brown bears in the fields of lupine, but most years we have little success. This year however was completely different! We had more photo opportunities with bears in the lupine then in my other 16 years visiting Lake Clark N.P. combined! I think it was in part because it was a great year for lupine – it was everywhere. But maybe more importantly was the abundance of angelica amongst the lupine. The bears don’t eat lupine, so you usually see them quickly walking through the fields, but they eat a lot of angelica, so this kept them in the fields for much longer.
