Bear in the backyard

[Twocoda]

Lew i just noticed in the one picture of your deer....is that a food composter in the backyard? (black Box with a lid)...if it is you might want to reconsider burning your food waste instead...beautiful shots...your living in paradise

Nope, that's just an empty box, there's no food or food scraps anywhere outside the house and even the BBQ is cleaned on a regular basis. It's just an area where the critters like to hang out and I'm happy to have them.

Storing garbage bags in a shed this time of year is a draw as well---with garbage rotting quicker in this heat

 

Years ago I had a bear try and install a drive thru service in one of my sheds where I had some garbage bags

 

Note: OSB boards is like wrapping paper on a birthday gift to a bear

Lucky you. We get one every couple of years. Once it figures out there isn't a reliable food source around, it goes somewhere else. We had one on the front deck about 5 years ago, trying to get the feeders. I was all ready with the broom to go out and chase of the "racoon" I thought was out there. Thankfully, I turned on the light before I opened the door.

Go out and pet it Lew, who knows you might have a new musky fishing partner there, and know one will ever fish near you, or take your fishing spot again with him in the skeeter LOL

At least my wife isn't afraid of bears, not even the grizzly kind

 

 

At least one looked at the camera...

You live in a wonderful place Lew.

I'd love to be in a place like that, but my wife is too attached to city life

and my kids are comfortable here too.

 

Maybe one day when the kids are finished school ................
