You got me thinking there for a moment about the carnivore/omnivore thing. I always assumed they are omnivores, but I don't remember where I got that knowledge from :-).

And the counterpoint is a good one, though the bear seems hesitant about the strawberry. I think he still prefers his leaves. --M I agree – and in any case I’m wrong – bears are omnivores, so eating leaves would be right up his alley.

I really appreciate it that you take the time to comment even if you're thousands of miles away from your home attending a wedding. I chose leaves because I needed something that would make those strawberries look even more appetizing. I think it worked out quit well. I'm glad you like it! Thanks man!

I immediately buy the scene and the gesture is just so great. The page overall is really an excellent balance of dialogue and plain action. Really nicely done! --M I love the second panel in particular, here – the bear offering Sem a leaf to eat is really just great (even though bears are carnivores and eat fish and other prey).
