Today’s Friday Flashback is from 15th September 2017 and is entitled ‘Black Bear on the Beach’. This big bear was certainly a beauty and I remember sitting watching him for some time whilst he sat around enjoying the odd bit of sedge.
Original Text: “Here on the BC coast a lot of people are reporting seeing black bears in their yards and gardens at this time of year – often they’re in search of fruit fallen from trees. This is a shot from earlier this year, when I came across this adult black bear as it was feasting on grass on a small beachside knoll. But by July, grass has lost a lot of it’s nutritional value for bears so they eat less of it and if old fruit is collected and removed from trees and when fallen in gardens, bears will eat less of it too!“
