October 30, 2007:
After the excitement of yesterday - today was a return to what's become the norm. We didn't see a single polar bear! All we saw, as far as wildlife, was a fox way off in the distance which was spooked off by a helicopter.
We had seen a polar bear resting on the fringes of icy Lake Iwago a few days prior so we were hopeful that he might still be hanging around the area. Even that one had left and besides the spooked fox there was nothing else! It was certainly cold enough for the bears now at minus 6 degrees celcius!
There was a lot of haze in the sky today which diffused the light and created an interesting halo around the sun. At least the sun and lake gave us a subject to photograph!
We headed home after checking for polar bears along a couple of side roads and had no further luck - just another frustrating day for a wildlife photographer!
