On one of our trips into Sequoia National Park from its southern entrance, we turned off at the Hospital Rock picnic area on the way to the Giant Forest. As we pulled in, we noticed a large dark creature rambling through the area. This bear didn't seem to be in any hurry to get anywhere at all. It moved slowly through the area, taking its time sniffing around and scratching at the ground. At this point in its rambling, it had an itch to scratch, so its started to roll back onto its left rear leg in order to free up its right rear leg for the scratching. Understandably, the bear took little notice of our presence.
The camera I used for this image was a Konica Minolta DiMage Z6, set at 1/60 sec, ISO 200, f5.0, focal length 420 mm (35mm film equivalent).
Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story!
