Title: Black Bears in the Blueberry Patch
Post by: MEGHAN on August 24, 2014, 08:14:35 PM

Blueberries are in abundance in Northern Ontario, and the Bears know it.
This sow and her 2 cubs were eating them faster than I could pick them.
I managed a few pounds of berries and these  images.

Nice. I saw a couple of Bears in Carden this year but they ran as soon as I saw them.

That's no fun  :(  I prefer these guys, they didn't run away.

Wonderful shots - in the last one it almost seems he's asking "wanna play?"
