Polar Bear Migration - Churchhill, Manitoba
Hi TTers,

Just wonderin'...has anybody been up there for the migration in October?

The pics/videos that I have seen of it are totally awesome.

Any info would be appreciated!

Thanks, TTers.

They say if an unarmed man sees a polar bear on the ice, it's already too late.

Too late for what? To watch the video that Highcountry mentioned?

A couple of goals I have in life are to photograph the polar bears outside Churchill, and the browns at brooks falls in Alaska. But first, I must drop some serious coin on some big glass. My 28- 200mm F3.5 just isn't going to cut it.

Hobbit,
get a teleconverter, it's going to reek havoc on your shutter speed, but with a F3.5 you should be alright. It's got to be a lot cheaper than the 170-500 Sigma lens that's on my dream list.
