This grizzly decides the time is perfect to put his feet up and chill in the water on a warm summer's day.

The adult male brown bear was clearly in a mood to relax as he floated on his back in a lake, with his feet pointing to the sky.

For half an hour the bear drifted along in the water, happily playing with branches that had fallen into the lake.

He even showed off his acrobatic skills as he performed a 360 degree spin in the water.

Graphic designer Rose Smith captured the wonderful pictures of the animal while visiting Grouse Mountain Wildlife Refuge in British Columbia, Canada.

While travelling with her sister, Rose was in awe to spot the male bear and get within 30ft to photograph it.

Rose, 33, from Gravesend, Kent, said: 'We were in a viewing area above the bear - it was fascinating to watch him having a great time.

'It really made me smile when I saw his feet, they were just so cute - not that you would want to get anywhere near them!

'I've never seen a bear like this and it was great to get an insight in to how an animal like this behaves.

'Seeing the bear's feet made me and others around me smile and made me realise how unusual a position it was to see a bear in.'Having had a good soak in the lake the bear went off into the trees to relax some more.
