Running into PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied while collecting image data

Question

I am working through the fastai deep learning course and one of the tasks involves downloading images through google images.

However, when I try to download the images, I keep running into the following error:

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

This is the code I am working with:

from fastbook import *

folder = 'black'
file = 'grizzly bears.txt'

path = Path('bears')
dest = (path/folder)
dest.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

download_images(path/file, dest, max_pics=20)

Some of the functions that I am using here are part of the fastai module.

Would greatly appreciate any input on how to fix this issue.
