To any person who felt I was accusing them of anything bad, *please accept
my humble apology.* It was when people started joking around, giving the
bear names, posting that video about a news show commenting on a bear
because there was nothing else of note to report on that I began to wonder.
And the photo of the bear standing up so tall with his ear clips looking
straight at the camera was unreal. This morning I started rummaging around
in the bear threads to see the other photos, and I realized the bear is
definitely real. I have two bird feeders and I like nothing more than to
look at birds. In the evening, the male cardinal now perches on top of the
pole where once a feeder used to be and looks towards my house. If there
were no real bear I could put my feeders back up. I was hoping there was no
real bear. Again, I'm sorry if I offended anyone.
