bear crossing....

these huge, old, apple trees are beautiful...... but big attractants for bears...


I had a house full of relatives that were anxious to see a bear from our deck last weekend. Since we moved into our new home, two months ago,  I have seen quite a few...... (13...is that a lot?)  Of course, this evening, after everybody has left, I glance outside the kitchen window and see a magnificent bear down by the root cellar. I am too fascinated to go for my camera until after he is in the hollow.  He was heading for the grove of apple trees that are thick with fruit. .....next acquisitions...a better camera, a telescope, and a big can of bear spray.....
