I recall having a night visitor climb a pretty frail Japanese maple of some kind in our front yard. We had made the mistake of putting a certain bird feeder there we were later told attracts Yogi and his pals!

Really nice stack, Robert! Love your writing and observations. I grew up in TN and we’d see black bears when we visited the Smokey Mtns. All traffic would stop as sight seers would get out of their cars for photos of themselves feeding the bears. 🐻

I hate thinking about Robert F. Kennedy Jr just taking that bear (similar to the one you moved to safety so authorities could properly deal with it — it may have a chip or ID) and then just dumping it in Central Park. I hope there’s a special place in hell for him.

I envy you and your pear tree. Such a sweet video of mama bear high up in the tree munching on pears and shaking some down for her cubs.
