BUBBLE BLOWING BEAR

BLOWING bubbles underwater, this adorable polar bear slides into his tank for a playful dip. Submerged below the surface, he tries his hand at blowing bubbles for his audience, before gobbling up breakfast. James Hayward, a 15 year old student from Kendal, Cumbria, captured these photographs inside the 'Frozen Tundra' section of Singapore Zoo. Looking through a large viewing area below water, James managed to take several pictures of Inuka, the male polar bear, while he played under the water after he dived for food.
