Description
What an absolutely amazing experience to witness the mating rituals between a pair of black bears in Cades Cove, Great Smoky Mountains National Park. For several hours a male chased a female until she treed and became trapped on a limb. For a full thirty minutes the male attempted to win her affection. She definitely made him earn it.

Hey! Thank You all very much for the comments! I greatly appreciate them. I love getting out and watching wildlife and wildlife photography is the perfect way to share with others the things I see along the way. Photography is a passion of mine and it’s always like a scavenger hunt, you never know what treasures you’ll find.
