This fella just wandered out onto the lawn.  I saw my wife go running and thought maybe her phone was ringing.

Big guy

The old bird feeder gets ‘em every time.

We can’t have bird feeders to my wife’s disappointment. People in this town gang up on you pretty quickly if they see a bird feeder lol. Public shaming for trying to entice bears.

Fish and Game Wardens will chat with you too about it; one guy told us the bears can smell a single sunflower seed dipped in black oil from a mile away in a bird feeder.

Saying I heard years ago:  An Indian shot an arrow into the air.  The eagle saw it fall, the deer heard it fall, the bear smelled it fall.

Our feeder is on a line and pulleys, like a clothesline, and it's about 12' off the ground and the same distance from house and tree.  A persistent gray squirrel has walked the "tightrope" to the feeder a couple times, but I doubt a bear could do that.  :lol:
Considering than Maine may have the highest bear population in the lower 48 (WA/WI also have a lot), the state has surprisingly few bear-people confrontations.

Ha, your analysis usually make it easy.  Just love your knee jerk reactions to any blue colors on any map. Your temp estimates were probably not far off for that look.

People see pretty blue and purples in summer and think it means cold and wet . While not hot obviously.. that look in June is dry and warm sunny days not far from 80 . Let’s get that in Nov/ Dec when it matters

Boston is +2.1

ORH is +1.3*.   Prob close to normal or maybe a tiny bit below if you factor in the gauge.   Maybe -1?

lol I love Kev and you know he’s just rollin’ with whatever comes to mind… but it always gets a chuckle when the data comes in with the exact opposite of whatever statement was just made.

Boston is warmest of them all :lol:.
