This young bruin is currently occupied in the estuary ...

Thanks to "Solketcher" for braving to get near for these photos, take your binoculars if you want to see him "up close" as these guys are hungry this year with too few berries on the bush.... might wanna leave the pooch in the car too....

A tale heard in our famous pub yesterday included a guy and a skiff at the beach with a baited crab pot getting stolen by a bear while his back was turned... but the guy managed to grab the buoy line and "tug-of-war" with the thief until it was relenquished and the vanquished bear scampered back into the forest....
Apparently someone has this on video...
