Mount Rainier Wildlife

We are always on the look out for anything from crickets, to chipmunks, to bear, bison, and moose.  We're not seeing much around here.  Then, in the blink of an eye as we approach a bridge, a bear ambles up into the road and begins walking across the bridge like he has all the time in the world.  I'm frantically trying to get a camera of some kind and get it on and focused before this guy gets to the end of the bridge.  I barely accomplish it.

I think it's a hoot that the wildlife uses people bridges to get across rivers and streams!  Really, why should they get their feet wet if they don't have to?  Smart critters!

Look closely at the photo below.  Mr. Bear is getting ready to step up onto a fallen log and walk across it, too.

This is our FOURTH bear on this Walla Walla contract trip.  That's so cool!
