A naughty bear visits Forked Meadow

A young black bear visited my parents at Forked Meadow. They know the resident bear who likes to hang out in the upper meadows and never comes down to the house. This is a young bear maybe displaced by the Creek Fire who is new to the area. He wandered over from the Target Rock Road cabins, past the new shop, along the house, and then drank from the hummingbird feeder by the back door! My dad chased him off a few times over a couple days and then they didn’t see him again. He might have become a rug on someone’s wall if he got into the 4×4 camps up off Rock Creek Road.
