POLAR BEAR IN FIREWEED
Polar Bear (Ursa maritimus) in fireweed (Epilobium angustifolium) on an island off the sub-arctic coast of Hudson Bay, Churchill, Manitoba, Canada. This bear was glistening white in the sun because he had just swum in from some distant ice floe. Bears come to spend the summer loafing on the island and looking for a careless seal or dead whale to wash up.
