I took my hiking partner, Baxter for a hike today. We ran into this chocolate bear feeding in the fresh grass along the road. I like hiking up roads that the traffic is not pounding this time of year to see what is feeding along them.
Baxter and I watched this bear for a little bit until it disappeared out of sight. We could hear it in the woods so we just turned around and headed the way we came from. I wanted to leave it undisturbed to do it's thing. I believe it never saw us even though we were pretty darn close to it. I always wonder how many people just drive around and scare the animals away and never know what they miss.
Just another great day in the outdoors.
