Back on the evening of May 26th around 10:15 PM, I went out onto the kitchen deck to call the cats in for the night and I saw movement that was NOT one of the cats. Turned out to be a black bear and at least one very small cub! :shock: They ran through the thick wooded portion of my yard towards the front yard and then towards the road. A river valley is across the road. In case you're wondering, yes, the cats came in after all the commotion. The bear had bent the bird feeder it was attempting to eat from but thankfully it didn't destroy the bird feeder. The next day I straightened out the bird feeder and put up one of my trail cameras. Last night I decided to take down the trail camera as there was no new damage to the bird feeder or other sign of the bear having returned, so I figured they were not going to come back. While I was looking through the photos to see if there were any of interest I found 25 photos of the bear and her TWO cubs. Turns out they visited just before 1:00 pm on June 4th. Here's the 5 best photos.
