Everyone appreciates a good road. Early roads often followed animal trails; now, animals often follow our roads.
Here, three Grizzly Bear cubs wander up a mountain road above Nelson. The picture is courtesy of Doug Thorburn. When he took the picture of the Dusky Grouse, he was actually hoping to spot some grizzlies. On May 1st, he saw these three lumbering ahead of his vehicle.

The same day this picture was taken, I noticed the City of Nelson crew putting up the “grizzly in area” signs on the railway trail above Nelson.
I have had a glorious time looking at all these magnificent photos.Many,Many thanks.colin McIlwaine.
