Tim perks up immediately when he sees it.
Hey look there’s a bear!
I had noticed it already but registered it only as he said it. It was a huge dark shape lumbering along the road we were driving on.
Hurry, follow it!
And so I keep pace with it for a while as the bear continues to run along the road, his vast form rolling and shifting with an odd mixture of movement that was both crude and natural. He exuded power with every heavy step. He was austere in his beauty. And he was large.
Then he turned and shambled off into the woods, and we drove on, excited by the sighting. We see a lot of wildlife, driving around in these nighttime woods.
