Headline: Bear Waves At Camera

Caption: This grizzly bear looked so happy with its lunch that it seemingly waved at the camera. Photography team Mike and Tineke Hoekendijk, from the Netherlands, captured the friendly creature enjoying a salmon at the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. Mike explains: "We love the Canadian and American wildlife. Every year we spend a few months there to take pictures. We were sitting on the riverbank when all of the sudden a mother grizzly appeared out of the forest with her two cubs. The two little guys started playing with some red Sockeye salmon. We were lucky enough to get a lot of nice pictures before they disappeared back in to the forest. I feel really lucky with this shot, as it looks like the cub is waving right at me!"
