Way too cool!!!
The most excitement in our back yard is a possum... or an owl!
Biggest growliest things here are feral cats and dogs...
Thanks for telling us and posting the pic...

Oh, I'm so jealous! You lucky duck. I love bears. We had a mom and 2 cubs wander down into my work campus last summer. They were lounging up in the tree. The DOW came to make sure no one got close, then the bears left overnight. Not to hijack, but I'm bored, so here are some pics a coworker took:
The best part about going up hills is riding back down!

It is an experience that I would like to see once. My parents are plagued with 2 bears almost nightly. They have destroyed the bird feeders, my parents now either leave the feed on the ground along with bringing in the feeders nightly, my brother lives near them, one got in his dog house and thrashed around, and they come up to his back porch and the dog chases them away. Not to hi-jack your thread. Have you seen them since?

When I lived on a fish hatchery in northern Arizona, we used to see a mama bear and 1 or 2 cubs every spring/early summer. It always amazed me how silently they could walk. Seemed one spring was particularly dry, the dogs and I saw the bear family outside one corner of the fence in the evening. I was SURE I kept mama in sight, when I realized my dogs were at the other corner, and wouldn't you know it, there was mama and the cubs. How she got through the dry leaves and twigs so quietly was beyond me.
