Or toothpaste.
Or soap. Or lotion. Bears that break and enter usually have to be put down.

Here - there's no "usually"..
Those cute mama and cubs playing with the closed trail sign on video at Hunter a few years ago are all dead..
Mama got the taste of garbage from summer renters..

Awesome!!! It's great to see predators out there..
There's always been the rumor that catamounts(Cougers) were released or somehow made their way down to the Catskills..

That one made it here in 2011 from the west but the rumor is that they were actually released at one point by the DEC.
This just a Bobcat yes? The tail on a mountain lion / cougar is as long as the body.
Yes, just a Bobcat and a good looking one at that!

The're back ! around the 2nd week of April . Had a relative pass away recently and was a big disappointment that he was not able to see his buddies come back . Before he passed I put up larger homes and when they came back they brought friends I counted at least 20 ! I was a bit concerned the neighbors would not appreciate the noise. But they love the show
Bugs were out in the evening yesterday and there was a bat fest as well.
It was good to see so many darting around for food.

Bats are back! Lots out last week at dusk. Was happy to see. Then mentioned to a neighbor and she said they could be in my attic. I don't think so lol, kinda afraid to look. They have a beautiful McMansion and had them for a few years before they got rid of them. We don't have a ridge vent and our side vents have chicken wire - so hopefully we're good.
Have te noticed lots more Robbins and bunnies this spring. And chipmunk road kill seems high. My latest battle are winter months. My 'hood is on a woodsy hill, tallest point in town and they are crazy in december - noticeably bad at top of hill compared to anywhere else. So bad it's tough to open door in winter without a few getting inside. But this time of year they munch the trees - can hear it and everything gets covered in caterpillar shit. I'm most sad to see the beech grove in woods being chomped. And my mountain laurel. I have a big beautiful one with red flowers (unusual) and last spring within a couple days they chomped every flower bud before I even noticed. Yesterday I noticed some leaves by my bush and sure enough they started. So picked em off by hand - went by every few hours to check on them. Hopefully won't decimate it again. Next year I have to be proactive with chemicals or something - hate them but hate these things more. Hopefully they don't ruin our woods- probably 4-5th year of them. .
