Momma Bear and Baby Cub pics

by Hilary Price

Last Friday, a momma bear and her baby cub lollygagged in my neighbor’s back yard for a good part of the afternoon. They hung out in the branches, they snacked on the bird feeder, they scratched their backs against the tree trunk, then they climbed over the fence and ambled away. Bears are a frequent springtime visitors here and often have a monitoring collar. While this all looks very serene, add to your vision a chorus of dogs losing their respective minds from inside their respective houses.
