Mug Shot

     I had to go back in the archives a little to get these. We've had anywhere from heavy rain to a heavy mist falling constantly here since last Wednesday afternoon. There's been a big low pressure system sitting right off the Virginia coast pumping cold, wet weather into the valley. Definitely not weather conducive to checking trail cameras.
     I had meant to post these a while back but never got around to it. Typical of the bears. They've always got to get a close look at the camera when they're a round it.

We've had a bear around our hunting cabin and property, but I've never actually seen one in the woods. These are nice photos! They look healthy.

We have a great discussion in Sweden about the bear danger. How far away are you björnarnma as you shoot? They look just peace out. Are they a concern for the population? / Brita

Great to see the bears.
This week a moose hunter was attacked by a bear. He survived with some bites
