Bathing in water and in snow

25.9.2020 – Photos by Oksana Kalinina and Anna Novikova

A nice swimming tour in the morning is always a good start of a new day. It’s not only refreshing but it also keeps the fur white and shiny.

Good morning to you! What shall we do today?

The snow drift is a popular hangout so sometimes a line-up is needed!

Excuse me for showing you my boomsie but I feel so comfortable lying like this …. 🙂

Don’t try to imitate me! This takes a very agile polar bear cubbie, hehehee 🙂

This drift is too small for downhill gliding but I can try anyway!

I’m dreaming of a very white Winter. Maybe we can build a snow castle ….. and we can throw snow balls …. or we can just roll on the soft stuff. Oh bear, it will all be sooooo wonderful and funny!

Dear snow, can you hear me? You’re very welcome to us!

I’m sure you have noticed the white beautiful furs of the polar bears in the Novosibirsk Zoo. Shauna knows the importance of good body care.

Well, what do you think? Don’t I look very presentable?

Gerda looks so young in this photo – don’t you agree?

I love this picture of Gerda. It looks like a Winter photo but was taken in September.

Kai is a smiling gentlebear

I guess he misses Gerda but he seems to accept the current situation without objections. 🙂

Everybody’s heart must melt now! This is such an adorable photo of Shauna.

Nordi is a big boy now and he will most probably be as big as papa Kai.

The little big bear boy is tired.

Gerda is still nursing her twins but I guess she’s already looking forward to the day when she can close her milk bar.
