Roger and Pam Nelson
Roger and Pam Nelson drove in their yard about 6.30 pm on Tuesday, May 24th, to find a mother bear and two cubs high in an oak tree in their yard. It appeared they were eating, either acorns or buds off the trees. They had seen a bear in the yard several times last summer and fall and have been wondering if this bear was still in the area. They aren’t sure if this is the same one, but it was a wakeup call for them! They won’t be out wandering around the yard without a vehicle close by. With the late planting this year there is not much for them to eat, but they had no idea the extent they would go to survive until the grain is ready. The two dark spots at the top of the tree are the cubs.
