With our apples and pears beginning to ripen, word is out in the animal kingdom,"Free Buffet"! Sunday morning, a bear was caught in one of our cameras crossing the log over the river. Sunday evening, we noticed bear apple barf in our apple/pear tree enclosure, so we set up a camera there, and one by the apple tree next to the greenhouse.
Sunday night, the apple barfing culprit returns to its side of the river.
A return trip Monday night for more apple delight. Although there is a strong fence around these 3 trees, a bear has no trouble scooting under or going over.
The time here is 6:01 AM. In the next video at 6:04, Gail comes walking by with Daisy, not realizing that moments earlier the bear was right there.
Meanwhile, the deer were having a party under the apple tree next to the greenhouse. I had left a radio and light on in there hoping to discourage the bears. No bears, but apparently no affect on the deer!
This afternoon, I picked a supply of apples and pears to make sure we would at least have some this year.
A few days ago, I caught this bobcat crossing the river log.

Whoa, what a close call with the bear. (Don't tell the bears you maybe got a Plott hound) ;)
That's very cool video of the bobcat crossing on the log.
Very cool footage. Such wildlife you have!
