Feeders Down

Last night while we slept we had a few visitors to our yard. There was an assortment of animals and then sometime after 4 am came Gentle Ben. It must have been Ben because there were no little ones in tow. I call him gentle because unlike last years visit, he didn't tear down the feeder and snap off the pole. The old green feeder was full of sunflower seeds and he tipped it over until the seeds ran out. The new red feeder he pulled on and broke the cable holding it up. We had recently grilled fish and the skins were on foil in the yard and he ate them also. He also tore the bottom of the suet bag and had that for desert.
There was over 40 pictures of the bear. The trail camera I have set up goes off every 30 seconds if it sees motion. He was in the yard over 40 minutes. I left out a few pictures and included on of me for a point of comparison for size. I think the bear we had last summer was bigger.
Sleep tight tonight. Oh P.S. If you click on the slide show it will show a larger version of the pictures.
