A Black Bear Cub standing in a tree and looking down at us, a little unsure of who we were and what we were doing on his river, meanwhile his totally calm mother fished nearby.

This cub either climbed up the tree, but was clearly not too happy about it because he cried from the tree for a long time, all the while his mother ignored him, and just kept fishing.  Eventually he learned that all the noise making was useless and stopped.
