This big guy is back! From the area that we live it is expected that we'll come across bears. He's roaming the neighborhood looking for crabapple trees.
He's eyeing ours up. We had asked the landlords about getting rid of them two weeks ago but they wanted to pick a bunch first. They still haven't picked them and so away they go. As soon as the bear realizes they are gone, he'll move on to somewhere else. But until then he'll keep doing his rounds.
He's been around for the past two days. Two times yesterday I was outside with the dogs and turned around and he was right there slowly sauntering through our yard or already in the garden. He seems to know we're not going to harm him as he just sits there and watches us. He's not acting threatened, but more annoyed that we won't let him near the tree. He looks so massive and powerful! There is something incredible about watching this creature wandering up and down the neighbors' driveways just doing what comes natural to him. Hopefully everyone removes their apples soon and he can move on safely.

yes they are! I love watching them from a safe difference. it's very beautiful here :)
DeleteThis is so neat...and a little scary if you like to walk around the neighborhood! When we lived in AK, we never saw any in our immediate area. We always had to drive awhile to find some lurking.
ReplyDeleteI do walk around the neighborhood every morning! We decided to stop for a couple weeks until he's gone. Which I think he is now so we started again this week. But we've only seen him on the road once quite a ways up ahead. I'm terrified that one day I'll look over and he'll be right there! ahh!
