We took a ride up north this evening to bring our grandson his birthday gift. Surprisingly, we didn't get to see too much in the way of wildlife, but I was impressed with what we DID see. We saw a total of five deer--not a lot, for sure--a bald eagle sitting in a tree--absolutely breathtaking!--and a coyote--which looked very healthy. I'm not sure if the dryness of the area is what kept the critters in the woods, but they were not active tonight.
That being said, we did have activity in our neighborhood this morning. K looked out of the front window around 6:00 AM and watched a black bear wandering in and out of the yards on our street and finally made its way onto the bike path and took off. I REALLY was not happy to hear this. Now I will have to take care when I go out in the evening--DON'T want to meet up with a 150 pound bear!
