Polar Bear in Snowstorm

It didn’t snow very much in Churchill, but when it did it offered some great photo opportunities. This was from the first day that we saw these two bears sparing. They were taking a break when the snow started coming down heavy. It had been above freezing for a few days, so they were grateful to see the snow.
