Any forum member may invent and post a caption for the photo, posting the caption as a reply in this thread.

All readers of the thread, including those posting captions, are encouraged to vote for any and all of the captions they appreciate by "LIKEing" them using the forum's LIKE feature. (Note that this feature prevents a person from voting for one's own caption.)

At the end of the contest period, the host will count the votes and report who won. In case of a tie the host gets to break the tie, but will not otherwise submit a caption or vote.

The winner will be notified ASAP by the current host by PM and a post in the thread. The new host should post a link to the new contest thread at the end of the caption contest round just finished.

Submissions should be text (no video or audio files) — caption, limerick, motivational, poem or prose — whatever inspires you to describe the photo or catch attention. Submit by replying to the thread. Contestants may submit more than one entry but it must be in a separate post.

Important:
Even if you do not submit an entry, please “like” any posts you feel deserve it as this is how the winner is chosen. And if you DO submit an entry, please also find an entry that you like from among your competitors' efforts and "like" that one as well. Enter often, vote more often. and most important: Have fun !

If the image is too big for you, edit your account "Settings and Options" for a smaller display size.

I will be declaring a winner at 9 PM ( 21:00 hours ) CDT USA on July 2, 2018

please get your captions in and remember to vote

" Rest of the story "

this is one of the two 4 year old female black bears ( yes despite its coloration, it is a member of the black bear species - it doesn't have the grizzly's hump and black bears can even have a white coloration ) at the Topeka Zoo and Conservation Center

although it can commonly be found in that tree, I have never seen it in the position captured in the photograph

it did reverse course eventually and took the way down which involved many steps as opposed to continuing as it was heading which would have been one long " step "

_____________________________


" that next step will be a doozy " would have been a nice caption IMHO
