Photograph by @paulnicklen for @natgeo // I love being a "fly on the wall" when it comes to wildlife photography. This spirit bear had no clue that I was sitting across from him on a river in the Great Bear Rainforest of British Columbia. The wind was carrying my scent away and the river was drowning out any potential sound. When the bear got to the bottom of this log, he did a huge leg stretch. It must have felt really good.
