A picture tell a thousand words - therefore here is five thousand reasons for travelling to Churchill to see the Polar Bears. What an absolutely magnificent display of nature. Watching the bears in their natural environment - waiting for Hudson Bay to freeze over, to begin their migration for the Winter. This female bear was sitting on a bed of kelp. We waited by her side, and waited. She would occasionally turn her head to look at us, but was content to stay perched on her 'bed'. That was until she decided her belly needed washing - this is what the photos show. Her sliding off the bed of kelp as part of her grooming routine. She then preceded to roll on her back - which gave us all a good view of her black paws and clean belly.
