So here we are Sunday Morning. Raining AGAIN here in North Georgia. We are eating breakfast in the living room watching TV. Naughty us! When suddenly a face appear in the window a couple of feet away from us. It is the first Black Bear we have seen this season. Talk about a morning wake up! This guy was probably about 1 to 1 1/2 years old. I made the mad dash for the camera. But he was gone. He did leave evidence that he was here though!
I will have camera at the ready and hopefully get a picture of the rest of him to share. In terms of safety here are the things to remember with black bears. NEVER get between a mother and her cubs. If you see cubs be very careful because mom is not far away. Also if a bear stands it s ground with you an Humpffs. It has cubs some where and will take you on.
For other situations stand as tall as you can and make noise at the bear. If you turn and run you better have Carl Lewis speed because they will chase you. But if you stand your ground and make noise they are shy and will turn and leave.
SPRING is now officially here for us!!!
