    this was just in my back yard

     



    Just figured I'd show pictures of this walking around my house... first saw it out the windows on the front of the house, but I couldn't get a pic till he was in the back yard.. he stuck around for about 5 mins, while I took some pics with my cell phone ( digital camera batteries are dead )...

    Does he come around often or is the first time you've seen him?

    Pretty cool to see one and not have anything bad happen. Only seen a few black bear in my life, but quite a few Grizzlies. So far so good!

    That's where he went, he got out of our back yard again! NOT!.
    If that walked thru our back yard, I'd have to tie up the wife, she would have tried to pet it! She's a bear freak, our house is filled with everything bear! & purple

    There’s an interesting story about a woman here in Oregon that was recently reprimanded by the court for feeding the black bears. Seems the bears have become so comfortable around humans that they just “help themselves” to everyone’s trash and anything else they desired (cats and dogs). Scared the kids to death!

    ".....If that walked thru our back yard, I'd have to tie up the wife, she would have tried to pet it!....."

    If I was still married to my second wife I would have encouraged her!!!!!!!!!
