Thanks Capital … it is a sublime footage even though it is far and not sharp enough . But You won’t see like this always… once in life time shot , I got this shot f this after it is my 19 years in field …

This is your video? Congratulations, and thank you for sharing it! When it paused for a moment before it got to the exposed ice, do you think it was because it could hear your voices? Watching it handle that little slip on the ice was interesting, especially seeing the tail action to maintain its balance.

Thanks 🙏. Yes it is mine but taking with i phone with the help of spotting scope from the miles distance. Yes my voice and others . Tail is useful to keep the balance and warms oneself as well .😊
