BOAF and a Bear

Working on my second block of Birds of a Feather, have it all basted and ready to applique, spending a quiet afternoon sewing also on my black primitive quilt when the cats told me to go look outside. We have our first bear, don't usually see them in the middle of the afternoon, he had already destroyed several feeders, with my camera, pistol and cane in hand, I went to scare him off, he was not thrilled with me bothering him while he ate the rest of the seed. He came at me once and a shot over his head didn't bother him in the least. I chased him into the raven, but he came back later, digging up ant hills, looking for more seed and drinking from the bird baths.
