    These guys are not exactly invading a garden but they're entertaining to watch. Knights Inlet isn't overly far from me here on the Island however we only get black bear here (not grizzlies). This was taken about 2 weeks ago.

    Some footage of orcas and humpbacks too. There is absolutely nothing like the feeling of having a huge whale surface beside your boat particularly when their dorsal fin goes way way way over your head. You can really appreciate how huge they are.

    You wouldn't be able to tear me away if I had views of bears, eagles and whales like those. Thanks for sharing the link.

    Oh my, in addition to the wildlife, the scenery is magnificent! I thoroughly enjoyed watching that video.
    One question, isn't it unusual for a mama bear to have three cubs?

    I think 2 is usual but 3 not unheard of.
