Yep, he has returned. Last night about ten pm I heard the unmistakeable sounds of the garbage cans being turned over and bear-handled. I went outside and saw the ghostly white shape of the garbage bag bobbing away across the driveway, seemingly by itself. The bear is so black he blended into the shadows to where I could not actually see him; only the garbage bag moving around. But we listened to him tearing it open and scattering trash all over the yard.
So.....back to taking our trash to the dump each day. Fun!
PS: That's not an actual photo of our bear! Just a stock photo of a stock bear, lest we forget the nature of the beast we are dealing with. Plus who wants a blog entry without a photo?

When I came home this evening - after dark - I had to stop at my driveway entrance for 3 small deer who were taking their time crossing into the woodsy area behind my house.
I thought of you and your bear and wouldn't trade with you. You all take care.
We will. And our deer made an appearance this evening, which was very nice. We have a trail cam set up tonight so if he does return, maybe we will at least get a picture and see how big it is.
Last time we were all in W'burg you and Marty woke up at like 4:00 a.m. to drive to VA Beach to photograph the sunrise. I expect the same dedication to this bear! Haha. I lost all of my blooming plants to deer and rabbits this year. But as Aunt Louise said...I wouldn't trade with you for anything :)
