Actually the entire family was out and about. Someone with a camera was videoing it as it wasn't just the regular camera in the tube getting the pictures, but someone moving.

Actually, they have another camera set up outside that can be rotated by remote, to watch what is going on outside the den.

I figured as much but couldn't find a link for the other camera

Ava, for me it's the same link. I just click on the normal "play" button and it came up.

The administrators remotely control the cameras from their headquarters, switching from the one in the den to the outside one when they wish. They can also pan the outside camera to try to keep the bears in sight. They are leaving the den more and more often now, and will probably soon be out of the range of either of them. I was wishing they could also collar Hope, as they do with Lily, but Hope is not liking collars very much at all! It has been another wonderful winter watching that bear family grow and interact. I have truly felt so privileged to have been able to learn so much about bears.

Lily and family left the den yesterday and have not returned.
