Yes bear pictures are good and bad. It is funny that he probably remembered your feeder so he had to check in. The bear that wandered down through Iowa into Missouri finally was tranquilized and taken away. I think he wanted to see the gulf of Mexico. L.

I'm pretty sure we have at least one coyote in the back yard, and for sure we have deer, skunks, raccoons, rabbits and who knows what else. Katie and I have been sleeping in a tent back there and some nights there's definitely something snuffling around. Maybe I don't want to know what it is! :)Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00824027366993286152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-40136096753027496152020-07-22T18:19:14.975-05:002020-07-22T18:19:14.975-05:00Boy!

We have a nest of quails about 10 feet from the back of the trailer. I love seeing the babies trailing the parents in a row.<br />Congrats on having all of the carving done.

We used to bring our bird feeders up onto our deck every night because the deer cleaned them out. But now my husband has them hung in trees where neither the deer or I can reach them.
