Ah, the Bear Paw. Having seen many living here in bear country I've
never figured out how to get a bear paw out of it. Seems to have only
one claw right in the middle. To me its the Jelly Fish Galaxy, at least
when oriented north up. Some sources say it is two colliding galaxies.
One the arc and the other that single "claw" toward the bottom middle.

It's been on my list for 2 years but somehow I never got to it.
