The bears woke up

So the bears woke up and tore up the garbage. Thank goodness they didnt bug my chickens

Must be the warm weather? I talked to someone who says he saw a bear yesterday too.

It's happened to me a few times.  Last spring I had to put the loader bucket on the dumpster lid.

Any time it's over 35 or so they will go an a stroll.  Especially if fall was scarce on food.. I always get them on camera during thaws...

They do not hibernate in my area in dutchess county.......  Get pictures of them every day even on the coldest of days

He sleeps under the neighbor's house sometimes . I'll have to poke my head down there and see if he is in there again  . The dec have been over here and chased him out a couple of times in the summer .so he may be back
