Well, it's June again (the 10th this time) and the bear has returned right on schedule. This bear has visited us 5 years in a row. My, how he's grown. He was just a youngster when we first saw him in 2004 (We didn't see him in 2003, but saw his paw prints on our broken bird feeder).
These photos were taken through the kitchen window with the bear about 10 feet away. The pictures are not good due to the poor lighting; it was after 8:30 in the evening. (My camera was still set to standard time.)
Hmmm. Something in here smells good.
There must be a way to get into it.
Well, maybe this will work better. Nope, nothing here.
It's slow going, but I'm getting something here.
That stuff makes a guy get a little thirsty.
What's this stuff in the bag ... thistle?
Naw - thistle isn't worth the effort.
Not enough here for a hungry bear ... I'll try somewhere else.
