Had another visitor last night.  Not bad, three bears in under 24 hours.

5 inches, I think.  What type of lids are they?  Do they bolt on or do they latch?  I would love to find a couple of the latching type lids.  I hate having to screw on and unscrew the ring that secures the lid.

You can wire the latch so the bear shouldn't get the lid off?

Man those are some pretty barrels.   :)  That's the type of lids I like.  They also make a heavier duty type latch...but I can never seem to find them.

Its a lot of fun sitting there watching them.  Hard work, but a lot of relaxing fun.

So on the 4th my cellular trail camera stopped sending photos.  Went in today to top up the baits and found that the bear had snapped off my antenna and moved the camera around.  Grrrr
