Heading in... May God Bless your day(s)...
Good morning everyone.
It's snowing here in the mountains and that makes it fun to watch the birds and squirrels at the feeders. We had 5 squirrels on the front porch just a few minutes ago. We had to move all of our feeders to the porch last year to slow down the bears. The bear we had New Years Eve get a feeder down was the first issue we've had since moving them.
I too enjoyed the games this weekend and am looking forward to next weekend's games.
I hope everyone has a great day.
Good morning folks.
Monday easier to take after a very nice weekend that included a nice win for the Cats and a huge win for the Bengals.
Got to get ready for a physical therapy sessions before work so I’ll catch up with you guys later.
The bears usually won't cause a problem except getting into garbage on pick up day (actually night before) or destroying bird feeders, trail cameras, etc. Coyotes will get dogs though. I've been on the front porch early in the morning reading and drinking coffee and had a bear walk down the sidewalk in front of the porch less than 10' away.We just get raccoons, so we moved them to a cable line we ran for our pups when we first moved in (didn't have a fence). It would be pretty cool to see a bear, but on the porch... might be a disaster with the pups

If anyone wants to see them in KY, come to Kingdome Come State Park and drive the Little Shepherd Trail between the park and Whitesburg (Hwy 119). May or Oct. are the best months. During those months I would give you a 50% chance to see one if you make that drive back and forth a couple of times.
BTW, up to 7 squirrels now which is the most this winter.

Our area has a bear spotted every once in a while but I have never seen one myself in my area.

Down here we call them tree rats and they are not your friend. I have so many I can't get rid of them and pray for hawks, eagles and ospreys to come and take them away.We have several squirrels around our house and they are fun to watch until they start ripping apart the wife's patio furniture cushions. 🤣
Around here they use Anatolian Shepherds to keep Coyotes at bay. There are a few guys that have large flatbed trucks with 10-12 kennels that house the dogs for transport out to the areas where coyotes are giving the farmers troubles. Some farmers keep Great Pyrenees dogs as well to keep them at bay.The bears usually won't cause a problem except getting into garbage on pick up day (actually night before) or destroying bird feeders, trail cameras, etc. Coyotes will get dogs though.

I only get one year on my pool cover.......the squirrels eat holes in it every season.......Down here we call them tree rats and they are not your friend. I have so many I can't get rid of them and pray for hawks, eagles and ospreys to come and take them away.
They will tear the screen around my pool to pieces
Some more pics will be appreciated. I'd like to see bear that are nearly kin... To a poster bud... 😁The bears usually won't cause a problem except getting into garbage on pick up day (actually night before) or destroying bird feeders, trail cameras, etc. Coyotes will get dogs though.

If you all can see it, this is when the bear got one of the bird feeders New Year's Eve.

According to this article Scientist have detected radio signals from 8 billion years ago. I am betting it was probably Keith Richards. 😂

He went ahead and pulled that feeder down while we were watching. It's homemade. When he picked it back up and started walking away I "spoke" to him. He dropped it and ran.Did you set him straight? Let him know it's not a birr feeder, but a BIRD feeder?

When we got our monster (Anatolian Shepherd-Great Pyrenees mix) as a puppy, the vet warned us to make sure she was socialized because if not they can become aggressive. She said they had the owners of the dogs used for the coyotes muzzle them before they brought them in for checkups and shots. When we took the monster in for the last visit, she (the vet) sat down on the floor so as not to be threatening. The monster walked over to her and flopped down with her head in the vets lap. The vet just laughed and said this is just a big baby. She is too. Very friendly and easy going.
