The bears are back
The bird feeders got ripped off the house again last night. This is the second time in the last week or so. Looks like the bears are back. I think that they're drawn more to the suet cakes than to the seeds, but whatever they're after, you know when they've been here. They rip the feeders down, straightening out the hooks. They rip the feeders apart and pretty much gorge themselves on whatever they can reach. The suet cake cages look pretty bad. Last time they did this, I set up the night-vision videocam and got some grainy Bigfoot-quality footage of them.
Timmy was freaking out the other night...down on the staircase, hissing and growling at nothing that I could find. I'm thinking now that he heard the bear out there knocking around and was trying to scare the bear away. He actually makes a pretty good watch-cat if there is such a thing.
