🌿 Wednesday Walk

#wednesdaywalk challenge ~ hosted by @tattoodjay 😎

Bear,Butterfly and insects.

🌿🌿

The black bears are very active here in the early Spring when they come out of winter hibernation and this time of year when the blueberries are most plentiful..!!
I always do a visual tour of my landscape before walking off my porch.
I took these photos from the inside of my cabin looking out the window. They don't come this close to my cabin when I'm outside actively working. When I do see one approaching in the distant a couple good loud hand claps sending them off running.

The bear in these photos I believe is the same bear cub I saw here last Spring. Now a over a year old. I noticed it had problem with right ear like the top had been bitten off ?.

I took a picture of this beautiful flower hoping to identify it. Spotted a spider on it after having taking the photo. I have not been able to identify either of them....yet.

🤔 I'm thinking these two beetles are mating ontop of my tall phlox.

I do need to say I do not attract the bears by providing food for them.
I take my bird feeders down before the bears emerge from Winter hibernation and what little garbage I have is secured. I see bears and other wildlife because we share the same habitat.🙂 :D
