Bears on Moose-Wilson Rd

Hi All,

We have spent most of the last two days working at bear jams along Moose-Wilson Rd.

The same young black bear has been feeding on berries along the road, usually within sight of visitors. Every hour or two (s)he crosses the road to get a drink in the pond and swim to cool off.

The bear swims for about ten minutes

and then walks back across the road to eat more berries. This is a rare sight with no oncoming traffic though there were about a dozen cars backed up behind us.

The berries are growing thick along the roadside so we expect to spend lots of time here. People are very enthusiastic and generally cooperative so it has been fun.

Love,
