Bear Activity

Thank goodness for a 500mm lens...

Summer...what?

There's a full moon tonight, as I sit here and type on this cloudy night. Yes.. cloudy. I think my last few full moons have been in clouds. Naturally.

It's been an interesting Summer so far. If we can call it that. It took forever to even reach temps that felt like Summer. We had a few weeks of 70/80's. The poor gardens are just now starting to look like gardens.
We've had thunderstorms the last few days which is unusual, but nice to have sometimes. I could do without the lightning.

Wildlife has been so-so. I've seen one fawn on the property so far, but no photos. The new fence isn't helping and they're too quick!
I've had several bear, almost daily, and I have one Momma bear with two cubs. As usual they show just as it's getting dark, so photos are slim pickins.

I have been able to just sit on the porch and watch them without her getting too upset. It's a neat thing to watch bear cubs play. They're very curious and play just like puppies. One odd noise and they're both up a tree. One day hopefully I'll get some daytime shots. I love this time of year.

It an odd way it feels like the season is just blowing by and before you know it we'll be in Winter again. Funny, as I type this it's about 59 outside and I have a wall heater on. Go figure.

Can't think of much else new. I guess I should go see if there's a moon out there :)
