He pulled one over and decided he didn't smell anything he liked. He then pulled over a second, gently lifted the lid and started scrounging around. I walked as close to him as I dared trying to shoo him away. He pulled one sack of garbage out ot the can and moved up a hillside about 20 yards away from me, sat down and began his feast. 15 minutes or so later he ambled back into the woods.

This year we've had visits practically every day from one of the 4 bears in our area. They've been on our deck and in many of our neighbors yards. I take all of my feeders in every night. This isn't a complaint about the bears, on the contrary we enjoy seeing them. We don't encourage their visits by feeding them, but enjoy them just the same when they do appear. They have never been aggressive.

Birding and photography are my two favorite hobbies and this area provides lots of activity in both areas of interest. Gary has created a great website.
