@harryooman I just saw this when I voted. There is a ton of compassion and love for 901 who lost one of her three cubs a few weeks ago. And, of course, she is female so there's a big push for her to win Fat Bear. I get it! It was hard not to vote for her, but my heart belongs to Otis. I was there the very week after 901 lost her cub. It was very sad indeed. Lots of time left so we will have to wait and see. #Alaska #FatBearWeek #VoteOtis

Audubon's Rowe Sanctuary's Crane Camera

The Crane Cam is located on Audubon's Rowe Sanctuary and is a great way to see the Sandhill Cranes on their river roost during the spring migration and other wildlife all year. Since the cranes leave the river to feed during the day, the best times to view are near sunrise and sunset.

It's Fat Bear Week at Katmai! The first pic is of Otis when he finally showed up at Brooks at the end of July. The second picture is of Otis yesterday. As Ranger Naomi said today, "vote for the bear with a story and who transformed the most." That would be the one and ONLY Otis! #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #FatBearWeek #VoteOtis #KingOtis
