My first visit to Jimmy’s for 3 months and I had a great day. All the girls are looking great.
Tala has grown quite a lot since my last visit and is of a similar size to Flocke now.
Surprisingly, Flocke was far more active in the water than Tala.
Our Flocke is as beautiful as she always is!
Her daughter Tala is also a real beauty.
Tala was Walking peacefully on the large fields.
Even the ‘sea side’ offers great surroundings. She didn’t jump in this time.
Hello Pat! Great to meet you here again!
Tala wanted to be close to Hope on one occasion but Hope didn’t want to know……she kept moving away. I know there is interaction between the bears but I have never really witnessed it.
Here comes Hope!
She’s so fluffy and roundish – and almost white, too! 🙂
This ‘crooked tree’ seemed to be a favourite spot for all the ladies.
Hope hade some nice laps in the ‘lake’.
Ewa still wants to distance herself from them both and tolerates Hope being close by.
Sadly, Ewa still seems to be spending a lot of time looking over her shoulder and avoiding Flocke & Tala whenever they came too close. However, she was quite happy close to Hope.

Where are they?
Ewa was really lucky finding a new hom here where she as much space as she had in Orsa.
As for Jimmy’s itself, the area near the brown bears is being redeveloped, new enclosures are being built to house new species of animals. After chatting with someone after the park closed, I think there are quite exciting times are ahead!
Are you wondering why there are not so many photos of Flocke? There will be a Flocke Special later on.
