About this photo: A visitor approaches
With Mad Dog Voyager securely anchored, we continue to enjoy
our shore leave. Across a small section of river, this wolf
makes it’s way up river, having given us just enough of a
glimpse to grab this photo.
Dean sits with the Canon camera at the ready; Leo has the
Sony video camera in hand. What next transpires takes place
over a one hour period. To become a part of this has been
one of the most rewarding experiences since we began
cruising – in fact this is an event that might top all
others!

About this photo: Our friend moves in for a closer look.
We are sitting very still and quiet, the wolf has turned
towards us and makes its way closer. Without hesitating she
jumps up on the very tree trunk where Dean sits, splashing
the water off her paws as she jumps up, pausing just long
enough for this photo.

About this photo: Eye contact closes the gap
This is incredible! With unbroken eye contact, a connection
is made. Deftly moving forward without breaking her gaze,
she moves closer for a better look. While remaining alert
and cautious, there is no fear on either side of this
once-in-a-lifetime occurrence.

About this photo: Curiosity is a powerful motivator
Sitting in the grass, Leo is a friend, not a foe, as she
moves in for a closer look. Her interest has now shifted and
she is completely enthralled with Leo checking him out from
every angle and position. “Hi, you’re a friendly wolf!” Leo
says softly. Leo lies back in the grass and she moves in
even closer, at one point even nibbling and tugging the toe
of his shoe!
