Good video of an adult bear taking a stroll through our yard at coffee time this morning. It's one thing to have bears active in the yard late at night, but more of a concern when they are in the yard daytime.
SPACES AVAILABLE!

Join Kristine Isfeld for Speech Arts training this coming 2018/19 season at Raincoast School of Musical Theatre. Kristine is a certified BC teacher with a background in special education and has been teaching speech arts for the past 8 years. Students will focus on: breath, volume, articulation, inflection, gesture, eye contact, body movement, and characterization while working on a variety of genres and material. Genres may include: poetry, prose, and monologues. Kristine will work with each student to determine the best material. Students may enter their pieces into the North Island Festival of the Arts and also choose to take Trinity London Exams (which can also be used for school credits in the grad program). Each student will develop the confidence to speak in public, on and off the stage.

This really happened just now. These photos aren't cropped. I walked out into our dog Gimli's yard at about 7:30pm, after seeing a creature sitting in the backyard. I thought it was Gimli at first. Mistake. As I got closer, I realized that the creature was actually an adult black bear. I cautiously stepped back and got a camera. It was a bit dark for pictures and I didn't want to shock the bear with a flash, so these are all pretty noisy and blurry photos (1600-8000ISO), but this was my closest bear encounter ever -maybe 12 feet at closest that I unintentionally got to. By the time I got the camera the bear had sauntered away a bit. Yeah, maybe there was some camera shake from my nerves too... It was a bit of a concern that the bear just looked at me without much of a reaction, and actually yawned ; maybe too habituated to humans or I was just too boring and not worth considering as food.
