Hide and Seek, Brown Bear Style - a photo on Flickriver

            As if saying "when I open my eyes you two better already be hiding," this Brown Bear Mom allows her cubs to take turns riding on her back. One Brown Bear cub almost completely hides behind its mother, but the other one peeks at the photographers from his perch on mom's back. After a couple days these cubs completely ignored us. 
Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.
