Photo Of The Day By Gene Putney

Photo By Gene Putney

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Waiting” by Gene Putney. Location: Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

“On a May afternoon, I had the opportunity to photograph this American black bear sow with three cubs,” explains Putney. “The mother was on the move, and this particular cub stayed close, but the other two were more adventurous and lagging behind. I captured this image as the mother and cub stopped and looked back as they waited for the other two to catch up.”
