Very short diary. I just found out about this live cam of brown bears in the river just below Brooks Falls hunting salmon. It's excellent quality. I'm going to watch it and will come back to update about the site, Explore, but wanted to let any fellow bear lovers know about this. Explore also has quite a few other cams on their site.
This is so cool! The sea gulls are standing near the bears, probably looking for any bits that the bears might drop.
Explore: Brown bears fishing for salmon at Brooks Falls
Update: there have been more bears at around starting around 8 PM EST. I'm not a bear expert, but I believe the larger, lighter brown bears with the hump on their front shoulders are grizzly bears and the smaller, darker bears are brown bears. There have been groups of 5 or 6 on the far side, the right side of the falls and the grizzly has been getting in confrontations with them. Another grizzly was standing on top of the falls right at the edge on the left hand side closer to the camera. That one has caught several fish jumping up the falls. Earlier the camera person panned downstream and I saw several fishermen fishing in the river not that far from the bears.
