Molly was just barking on the porch. At a woodchuck, I assumed, at this hour. I took a deep breath so I would not yell at her (because I do want her to bark at bears) and went outside with a treat. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something big and black, and realized the bear was only thirty feet away in the side yard. I grabbed Molly and ran in the house for my camera, but ended up with the flipvideo camera.
I tried to get some video through the great room window when I saw the first cub come down the tree, so like a typical fool I sprinted for the door and managed to get a little video of mom bear in the grass by the middle three, just a paw on Cub Two, and Cub Three climbing down.
So here you go, so everyone knows I'm not making up my bear tales...

ReplyDeleteWow, that's pretty brazen of them to visit in the middle of the afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThis would just freak me the heck out of my mind. Weren't you scared?
