How cute!

No, I haven’t seen any baby giraffes but our neighbors just told us that they saw a bear at our back door about an hour ago.

It’s not usual for bears to be out and about during the day.

Where’s Davy Crockett when you need him?

Wow, neat! I’ve only seen a Bear Once and he was stealing apples from our tree. That one must have been hungry if he was at your back door, and out during the day. Or maybe sick. Poor thing.

I encountered Bears a couple of times in the Sierras. Once when I was going for a walk. I was going down a trail and he turned out of the forest, and we just stared at each other, probably both of us thinking that this can’t really be happening. The second time one discovered that our bird feeder held some yummy food. He was bashing it like a pinata against the window. And then he came back the second night and was staring through the French door. Luckily he didn’t come back. I read a lot about bears after that, and was grateful we didn’t have Grizzlies around. But black bears are pretty docile and pretty scared of us. As long as they don’t become predatory.
