Great sighting Cheryl. Probably a good idea that you didn't get out of the car. :) Roger Mayhorn Compton Mt ----- Original Message ----- From: Cheryl Thompson To: bcbirdclub@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 15, 2010 4:32 PM Subject: [bcbirdclub] bear sighting Yesterday evening, my nephew and I took his bulldog, Hoss, for a little drive... We drove up, Route 610, Conaway Creek... At the foot of the mountain, heading over to the Breaks Interstate Park, something small and black ran across the road in front of us... At first, I thought I was a small dog... Then, I quickly realized it wasn't... When we got closer, there was another one... There were two baby bears cubs... They were so small and cute and jet black... They must have just come out of the den... We didn't see momma bear, but she must have been near... I stopped for a moment and tried to reach around the back of the car for my camera, but they started going back into the tree line, out of sight... And I wasn't about to get out of the car.
