Sisu and his neighbours

Hello! Terve! It’s your charming Sisu calling again. I hope you don’t mind my calling myself charming. I can’t help it’s a fact! 🙂

I’ve been ‘invisible’ during Pat’s previous visits but today I decided to be ‘visible’.

I have a ‘big thing’ about Indie who’s in the adjoining enclosure. However, I didn’t manage to see him this time.

I spent my day patrolling the fenceline ….

…. and I heard Nobby was calling me.

Nobby made his best to try and attract my attention in the opposite enclosure.

Well, I didn’t feel like chatting with him today …… so I ignored his calls.

Nobby: I know when my company isn’t wanted!

Sisu: Maybe next time, old chap.

Nobby finally got tired and decided to take a tour in the Napland.

Even I needed a break after such an intensive morning!

As you can see I still have a ‘naked spot’ in my fur but now I think it’s a part of my image. Everybody recognizes me when they see the spot.

No Indie in sight so I can fall asleep!

  1. Ja Sisu, dein Fleck im Fell ist nun dein Markenzeichen. Und manchmal will ein so charmanter Herr wie du einfach nur seine Ruhe haben, wenn der Lieblingskumpel woanders chillt.
    Bis demnächst liebe Grüße

    • Dear Pat and Mervi
      Thank you for the words and pictures.
      Nowhere else in the world have a group of male Polar Bears spent so long together without female bears. It is clear that not only do Polars like company but they are very choosy about their friendsQ

  2. Dear Pat!
    You have captured this handsome, big and charming bear in vivid and expressive pictures. Thank you very much! You can tell that he is close to your heart. The big Viking is of course also very photogenic!
    When the usual hormonal storms of spring are over, the big boys will certainly be happy to be together again.
    I liked Nobby’s wrinkled nose…

    Hugs
