A grizzly cub with its mother in Alaska's Katmai National Park. The cub, with two of it's siblings, have spent the day watching their mother fishing during the annual run of Sockeye Salmon in August. It is an important learning experience, often hilarious to observe, but also sobering since their success in storing calories will determine their ability to survive the coming winter hibernation.

Lake Manyara in Tanzania is probably the most well known such area, and it is justifiably famous for its tree-climbing lions, though they are not always so easily found. This lioness, along with a companion just outside of the frame, is resting in an umbrella acacia after feeding, its full stomach just visible behind the front branch that it is resting on.

Audubon 2023 Photography Awards Top 100 - A Great Blue Heron and a diminutive Sanderling sharing a stretch of beach on an early overcast morning in January 2020 on Melbourne Beach, Florida. I am sure they are aware of each other, but they also seem lost in their own thoughts.
