Someone Dropped a Bear Bomb!

Timelapses are fun. Especially when you stick one at the top of a mountain and a bear photobombs it! We put this one up at the Peak of Grouse Mountain hidden at the very top a bit to the side of the chair lift.  And we left it.....for a week. The very fun result is below.  Let us know if there are places in Vancouver that you think might make for a neat time lapse. Only criteria is that it needs to be locked to something preferably in a place where its not going to be messed with. In this case it was locked to some old rebar.

As is always the case with embedding, you may need to right click and watch it directly on Vimeo if you get playback issues here. 

This is the locale where we put it. I just realized I was in this photo!  This one turned out quite well. Geordie is getting very good at spotting places that would make for a good all round panorama. Well not panorama but whatever you would call that.  360 view I guess. Or planets. I like planet views.
Just in case you missed it here is our bear bomb. Looks like an older yearling. There are some grasses with seeds near the camera which may have attracted it.  There are some birds you can see if you stop the video fast enough.  I would love to get more animals in timelapses like this. I hear rumours of a beaver in Lost Lagoon but can't find a place to put the camera that is not high traffic. May risk it anyway......
