They sure enjoy it when the snow arrives before Hudson Bay freezes. You really captured the joy here Jane.

Thanks, Debra. I took a series of photos, and called it 'bear yoga'.

Description
This polar bear wasn't put off by the minus twenty windchill at all. After a scratch and a stretch, he went back to sleep. This was taken last month in Churchill, Manitoba. I really hope by now the ice has formed, and the bears can hunt and eat again.
