A wild brown bear in eastern Finland, some years ago.

The picture was taken from a hide, just like all the other Finnish bear photographs. I’m not into commercial hides, but the August night that I spent in that tiny tent-like shack was a very special one. In the middle of the night, when it already was too dark for any bear photography, I could still hear footsteps of the bears on the pond shores.

His #august majesty sat on velvet pillows on a throne of ebony, itself on a dais of black marble. The first petitioners threw themselves on the ground in obeisance.

"We beg your majesty to release our impounded fishing vessel," said one.

Silence.

"The salmon," hissed the second.

"Oh--right! A-and we'd like to gift you with half our catch of salmon as a sign of our contrition," said the first.

From the dais, a rumbling purr of satisfaction. The vessel was released.

The two boys laid on the floor of their treehouse on an #August afternoon. "Whaddaya wanna do?" one said.
"Nothin'…"
The calls of cicadas mixed with the sounds of a lawn sprinkler and a lawn mower.
"We didn't do nothin' yesterday either."
"It's too hot to do nothin'."
"That's what I'm sayin'!"
Then they heard the tickling music of an ice-cream truck as it came around the corner into the neighborhood. They sat up and looked at one another.
"You go stop 'em! I'll go ask mom for money!"
