A nice, almost loving description of a polar bear. You don’t say it outright, but it is fairly obvious what you mean. For once, an effective and consistent use of the present tense, so nicely done there.

Minor nitpick, the use of ‘though’ in the middle there seems to denote a contrary condition but the fact that the fur is colorless is why it reflects the light not a reason it shouldn’t. Different wording might work better.

Thanks for the comment :) I wrote this for a challenge; the point was to be descriptive enough for readers to know what animal is being written about without actually naming it. I can see your point about the use of the word “though”. That sentence could definitely be restructured to better fit the rest of the story.

Very well put…as if I was listening to National Geographic instead of watching it!!! Loved it!
