...in my backyard!
My dad came home from grocery shopping and found a bear on our back driveway, examining the empty bird-feeder. He waved his arm at it until it loped away. I looked out the window just in time to see its brown bear-butt disappear around the barn.
This is so exciting. Kinda scary, but that's excitement, too.
This morning, my mom and I had found two of her bird-feeders missing (one we found rolled to the hill) and hypothesized a bear. Quite different thing to see it. I don't think of our city as all that rural, and yet bear-sightings are not all that uncommon in outlying neighborhoods.
This all happened about 20 minutes ago.
