Aha! What's this? 
Can a dog's foot be that big?
This beautiful Black Bear seems to have a claim on my place (he did have it before I arrived). He has mangled my building supplies before, and keeps turning over my stacked cinderblocks. He must be a curious fellow, or else he is trying to give me a message.
I love the natural world and find it most fascinating as well as empowering. When ever I see evidence of wild life around the place I live, I feel apart of the network of life. I never find my self feeling so invigorated amongst modern society, actually I feel alien in the larger cities anymore. Thanks for sharing.
