Wildlife in the Neighborhood




On Friday a bear was seen walking down the road in front of the house. None of my methods are acceptable, where I threw my kids out of the house in the morning and said go play. Here you have to a search for bear and deer before leaving the steps. Today, what was in the yard? - 10' from the door - a deposit of some chewed up apples from the back end of the bear, a foot in diameter, beside the watering can. That's the enclosed garden beside the house that the girls and I planted and we're still eating out of it.
We went off to the park and had fun in the sun and the local deer walked through the yard. They are so pretty to see.

Sounds really dangerous! Does this happen often; having bears wandering around your back yard? I like the lovely deer though.
Greetings from New Zealand.
I rather imagine you must live in the wilds of Canada!
Take care.
