We love our wildlife here on the mountain, though some I love more from a distance. Like the bears. They are cute, especially this guy, who's not too old to kill me with one strike, but maybe two. 😲 As much as I love to see them, I'd rather they not be on my porch! We had to take the bird feeders down for the season, and I'm bummed about that!
Sam, our newest canine family member, LOVES the bears. He thinks they're just funny look dogs in need of a nail trim. He whines when he sees them, but Allie, she is NOT a fan. She sounds like she's planning its death. I don't think she'd win that battle, so obviously, we don't let them out when we've got sightings near by.
Living on a mountain is so different than the suburbs!
