Wilbär had a wonderful birthday

10.12.2009 – Photos by Pernilla Thalin and Anders Björklund, Orsa Polar World

Our dear Wilbär had a wonderful birthday with lots of visitors and of course, a cake and a beautifully wrapped present. There was a little mishap with the present – before giving it to Wilbär Ewa ‘accidentaly’ ate the cola flavoured strings… . She is a lady with a healthy appetite – to put it mildly – not only did she eat her own cake but also most of Wilbär’s! Well, Wilbär was happy anyway for all the attention on his special day.

A birthday kiss to you, dear Wilbär

Wilbär enjoyed lying in the snow eating his cake – or what was left of it :-)

How nice to see so many visitors! Thank you for coming!

Isn’t this exciting……

  8. Mervi, thank you so much for showing these wonderful pictures of two happy bears.

  9. Orsa is truly a paradise for every polar bear – and on every pic it is obvious how much the bears love their home, and how much the keepers love their bears!
    Thank you Mervi for showing, Pernilla and Anders and everyone involved for “baking”, wrapping, inventing!

  10. Dear Mervi,

    Just precious, sweet and wonderful!! It seems that all the female bears are good eaters and like to take the birthday cakes away from their boy-bears! Thank you to all those involved in making Wilbar’s birthday a success. Those cakes look delicious!!

    Hugs from Sarsam

  11. Dear Pernilla, dear Anders,
    that’s what I would call a birthday party! Feasting so much that the birthday child is flat on the ground at last! *grin* .
    But Wilbär is used to that. Last year celebration went all day long that in late afternoon Corinna and Wilbär didn’t want to come outside anymore.
    Thank you for reporting and bringing -again!- wonderwonderful pics.

  14. I already loved the photos of Ewa’s birthday party, and I love these ones too. What a wonderful day Wilbär had and the waz of wrapping the gifts and boxes , not to forget the wonderful cake…I agree with Christina, each photo shows how dedicated the staff on Orsa is and how much thez love the bears. Thank you so much for sharing, Pernilla and Anders, and thanks to Mervi for giving us th opportunity here to feel still close to Wilbär who by the way nearly got a little sister. Unfortunately she didn’t survive…

  15. What a wonderful party!!
    Perhaps Ewa talk to Gio about the cake… girls first….
    Thank you Mervi, Pernilla and Anders

  16. Dear Pernilla & Anders,

    Ohhh, I cannot believe how pampered Wilbaer and Ewa are, Ewa exhibiting a bit of gentrified rivalry as regards who gets the greater share of cake!

    It’s nice to see that both bears partied until Wilbaer wore himself out!

    The photos and vignette are absolutely adorable. We love to hear about how what we consider ‘our bears’ are doing.

    Thank you very much, Mervi, for hosting.

    Bear Hugs, Tish
