Any idea which ship? Only semi-atrocious as a sea going vessel.
I once drove over the Verranzano bridge as the QE2 was going underneath, that was pretty neat.

I have no idea which ship that is.

I have no idea which ship that is.

That's the Seven Seas Navigator sailing out of Bayonne.

I hope you are using a zoom telephoto lens, because I think a bear can put run a human.

The last one is way cool

 

[Paul Lutes]

Absolutely stunning!

@Lauren, the last shot is determination personified. Or bearified, if you prefer. ;-) Awesome. I'm looking forward to your trip report.

Yes, definitely a telephoto lens (100-400mm)...the park has a 50 yard rule unless you're on one of the platforms that are staged on the river's edge. While on the platform my lens occasionally had too much zoom!

His [VERY] large body definitely proves he's a determined bear!

Has a bear ever choked on a fish?

Has a bear ever choked on a fish?

Judging by the "crunch" you can hear when they eat, I'm thinking they chew pretty well

Just so long as they are crunching fish and not you, life is good..

It proves why he is very high on the food chain.

He'd eat ya!
