Wow! Something you would never see here! Nice shot!

[KV]

Looks like a big bear!

[Kim Capson]

That is both amazing and a little scary!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Uh oh. Kind of scary looking but a great shot. Be careful.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Uh oh- you may have to bring the bird feeders in for a while! Great shot!

[Pam Knowler]

Wow how amazing to see the bears in your yard! Very scary! Take care!

Great capture of a bear in the garden

[PhotoCrazy]

Nice capture!!

[M. Brutus]

What a beautiful garden. No wonder your intruder couldn't bear to stay out. I hope you took this shot through a window.

[Joan Robillard]

A sight I hope I never see in my back yard. We have had a moose in our neighborhood but never a bear.

[Nova]

WOW what a surprise that must have been! So glad you are safe inside (I'm assuming you are inside) while taking this shot.

[RonM]

Bears every where. Looking for easy pickin's. Nice safe distance shot!

[Milanie]

What a wonderful way to get a shot of mama - trust she found nothing of real interest in your backyard!

[Leslie]

Wow and what a lovely garden

[Carrie Shepeard]

Up close and personal!

Super capture - scary but wonderful and from your dining room window

[Lou Ann]

Your garden is beautiful. I am hopeful she doesn’t decide to live in your backyard!

[Islandgirl]

Thank you for your comments and favs.
There is no need to worry about bears if you don't get between Mama and her cubs or by meeting her by surprise!
No they did not damage the gardens, they used the pathways! lol
This is why I take my hummingbird feeders inside every night, and we don't have any other feeders up during the summer.
