'Bear' With Me...


I was walking out back behind
the house a few days ago...


I had a 'oh no' moment.
Actually said the words out loud...
But in a whisper.


A Black Bear moving out of the brushes...


Black bears range in coloring from
 black to cinnamon...
But I digress...


He's moving to my right as I move
 backwards and to the left towards the house...


A far piece to walk oh so slow...


He's shedding his winter coat
in case your wondering why his fur is a mess.


One last look from him as he 
moved slowly away from me and 
back into the woods.

Whew!

  7. WOW!! And u took pics too!! But love watching animals mostly from the comfort of a chair at home. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, -- don't like what they do to the garden, but are totally safe. lol
