A black bear was spotted putting its feet up as it took a moment to relax in a small pond.

A hidden camera in Council, Idaho, recorded the bear as it laid on its back in a small body of water.

The filmer told Newsflare: "A black bear lying in a shallow pond in Idaho with its feet sticking out of the water yawns. It looks clown-like which made me laugh."

This video was captured on August 11.

Two black bears are at a shallow pond in Idaho. The cinnamon colored one moves out of camera range revealing the black one whose paws are out of the water facing the camera. The bear looks clown-like to me. It yawns, showing a long tongue and white teeth.
