Welcome to Saturday Sparks 285!
I thought I'd start off this weeks party with a couple shots captured from one of our game cameras.
Mama bear is crossing a section of our very long driveway...
...with the sweetest little baby bear in tow.
We may have just missed each other, as I walk this way each morning.
As much as I would have loved to have seen them, I know it was a blessing that we didn't cross paths.
Have you had a close encounter with wild life?

Suzanne, be careful on your walks, a mama bear with her cub is fearsome. Thank you so much for featuring my Picnic In The Country. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteWow - great bear pictures! We saw a bear near our house last summer but mostly we just see deer. I wasn't happy that the bear was so close to our neighborhood...scary! Thanks for hosting and enjoy your weekend!

OMG that is sooooo cute! In my country we don't have bears. Actyually we don't have any dangerous wildlife. It's a bit sad actually. But recently there is a lot of commotion and joy because there are 2 wolves and is is a very very long time ago since there was one overhere.
ReplyDeleteI would prefer not to ever come face to face with a mama bear, watching from a safe distance would be great! LOL Have a wonderful weekend, Suzanne. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the feature! And thanks for hosting every week. I always love your features!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting each week!!

A mama and baby bear on your driveway - scary but awesome too. Thanks Suzanne for your 285th Saturday Sparks. Love the features.

Wauww so cool to see a bear... I'm already happy to see kinds of birds that you don't see much :-)
ReplyDeleteThis morning I'm enjoying coffee on the porch with a view of my little black "cup", my Scottie dog --- that's the wildest thing other than deer I'll see at home! Loved your photos! Also wanted to thank you for sharing my Iceland post. No beers there either, just lots and lots of sheep and horses.
ReplyDeleteHello Suzanne! I think you're right; it's better NOT to cross paths with Mama Bear. I still remember a terrible tragedy that happened to a woman runner in Northern California who accidentally ran between a mother bear and her cub ~ made the national news... :( However, from the house or car window, game on!!! :D
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I've stopped over and I wanted to make sure and first say, Thank You for hosting!!! I do enjoy seeing what you and everyone has been up to, especially since we are heading into harvest time and early fall. Really my favorite time of the year with cooler weather coming in and being able to bring out the long sleeved t-shirts and light sweaters for evening walks... Ahhhhh! With that, I've just attempted to work with layers of chalk paint on a little nightstand. Hope you and your readers enjoy this first part, Antiquing with Chalk Paint.
Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Barb :)
Beautiful pics from the porch. Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for featuring my artwork! It's my favorite new thing (at the moment). The bears are so beautiful. We have game cameras but usually only see deer and herons. We do get the occasional fox and coyote, but bears are not likely to be seen here. I'd probably be scared to go outside if I saw a bear!
ReplyDelete😱 Suzanne, you are very brave taking a walk on that path! Be safe! Hugs
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for hosting. I brought one of our old time favorite back home. I hope you have a great week.
