It always amazes me people in North America live in close proximity to bears.<BR/><BR/>The birds are supposed to be better off now with natural, high protein food anyway, aren't they?Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27065066.post-30291587529253150692008-04-01T23:56:00.000-04:002008-04-01T23:56:00.000-04:00For as long as I lived out in the country I never ...For as long as I lived out in the country I never saw or heard a bear. Mountain lions, foxes, deer, raccoons - yes, but I'm glad to say no bears. <BR/><BR/>It's probably a good thing your husband went back to sleep.

Quite a problem in some neighbourhoods. Interesting how they keep coming back to where they found food previously, so there's quite an education campaign here to keep garbage locked up in garages until morning pickup, under threat of fines even.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
