Well Hellooooooo there . . . !
Friday, March 28th, 2008When you work at home you deal with plenty of distractions but I sure didn’t expect to get THESE distractions today! 
I was working in my office this morning, which is at the back of the house. Suddenly I heard a loud CRASH! out on the deck in back. Usually when I hear that it’s a neighborhood cat or racoon causing trouble - but today I looked out and saw three BEARS on our deck, ransacking our bird feeder!
It was a Mama and two goods-sized cubs. They stayed awhile (long enough to empty the bird feeder) so I was able to get some decent pictures.
Animal Control to the rescue! They chased the bears away.
So much for our bird feeder! They ripped it right off the pole.
We live in a suburban area that has plenty of woods surrounding it, so we’re no strangers to bears, deer and smaller critters. In fact the bears have been using our yard as a pass-through to other areas for some time. But until today they didn’t notice our bird feeder.
Guess the birds will be out of luck for awhile, I can’t put the feeder back up now that the bears know it’s there. They’ll just keep coming back. The birds will have to be satisfied with a few seeds scattered on the lawn for awhile!
